Everyone is afraid of what lurks in the dark... Especially the residents of New Yorkshire, a supposedly peaceful town - that is until it's suddenly running rampant with ghouls and ghosts! And somehow you are the center to solving this madness, which would be easier said than done if you knew why you found yourself drawn to this hellish city! Seeking refuge at the local High School, you meet up with a torn bunch of survivors who are sceptical of your arrival but depend on your help. Can you figure out the mystery before the zombies or, indeed themselves, tear themselves to shreds?!
