You play as George Blackwin, a young, small-time journalist, who hears about strange occurrences taking place in an old hospital that was shut down 30 years ago, due to a murder case that has been shrouded in mystery since. He ventures a few cities down, and gets locked in said hospital, unable to get out through the main exit. He drops his current assignment of getting a story for his newspaper, and focuses on one thing: Getting the hell out of this place.
--
However, the hospital is abandoned and empty. Nobody has entered it for 30 years. Blackwin is alone, stuck in an old, dark hospital. At least, it seems you are.
