Beyond
Ambrose Ibsen - 2019
Then, he came back to life... On the night of a long-awaited comet sighting, Erich, a university student, comes back from the dead. Making a miraculous recovery after a horrific car accident, he quickly returns to his musical studies and seems to have a new zest for life. Though he mingles with his fellow students and dedicates himself to his work, those close to him can't help but notice something is wrong, however. Very wrong. Erich isn't himself anymore. His personality has changed radically, and where he was once a middling musician, he's suddenly and unaccountably developed a virtuosic talent. He spends his nights awake, walking the streets or throwing lavish parties. What's more, those who spend time alone with him tend to go insane. Amid a string of suicides and government conspiracies, the denizens of Moorlake, Ohio find themselves at the center of a blossoming cosmic horror. If they don't find out who—or what—Erich Tellier has become, the horror is bound to spread beyond the confines of their quiet college town. BEYOND is a tale of cosmic horror by Ambrose Ibsen.
