Tansley Close was no ordinary place. It kept many dark secrets close to its heart.It had stood for more than eighty years, unnoticed, forgotten except for the residents who lived within its boundaries.They were its target, its victims, given no choice but to walk the footpath that led to the archway, to enter into a world where they were forced to relive their darkest nightmares.The archway was the doorway to Hell, an entrance into the deepest recesses of the mind.It was a place where reality became blurred and the truth was lost.The residents of Tansley Close seemed ordinary enough to outsiders.Behind closed doors, they lived in fear of the terror that awaited them as they were drawn inexhaustibly into the vortex.As a host of characters face their innermost fears causing them to question their very being, the vortex is drawing them forever in. Indeed you'll meet the unusual residents of Tansley Close, for instance single mom Trisha and imaginary friend Mandy; Kirk the murderer; Mavis Adams, her husband Stan and son Clayton released from the psychiatric hospital; Les Crowley, an old man who is the gatekeeper and puppet maker; and Joan Lipton the witch with her 13 black cats.Strangely, no one ever asked why they stayed, what kept them there. Maybe there was no answer, or at least not one they wanted to give.Something bad was about to happen.The vortex held many secrets. Why did it need from the occupants of the Close and what was its purpose?Tansley Close was watching and waiting.When twilight falls the nightmares begin.
