One bleak, black, March night, the innocent began to die... Come with Sandy Willis on a hideous journey into the nightmare world of horror—into the old haunted house in Windrow Place, where the forces of evil anxiously await. Come with Sandy through a web of all-consuming fear as she discovers, lurking in the recesses of her deepest, darkest thoughts, another mind: that of senile, sinister, mad Maggie Keeler. Come with Sandy as she tries to unravel the terrifying secrets of the past, because now old Maggie's mysterious powers are being directed against the very people Sandy loves the most, and only she, with her untested psychic skills, stands between them and the Evil One.
