Within

When the wealthy and enigmatic art collector Harold Klimt moves into the long dilapidated house known as the Upshaw Mansion, most don’t think twice about it. But when Mr. Klimt begins to throw lavish parties for the town’s elite, Colin Thorne — a young, aspiring artist still grieving over the recent death of his childhood friend — sneaks inside the house to explore, suspicious something's wrong.
What he finds are the buried secrets of a town with a troubled history and something else... a plain of horror so vast that in threatens to alter reality.
As Colin becomes further enmeshed in a new art project, the horror begins to bubble to the surface of not only his psyche, but the entire town.
