Carver, Tennessee…
At twelve thirty-seven am, Warren Bailey, a Carver resident, stumbled upon a Caucasian male covered in blood and wounds, missing a hand from the wrist up. The man was babbling on and on about demons and 'Deadites,' repeatedly telling Mr. Bailey to 'warn everyone.' County police eventually discovered several bodies at the cabin which the suspect indicated it all took place. Immediately, the suspect was incarcerated and upon review was determined 'unfit for trial' and placed inside a maximum security sanitarium, George's Banks, until a violent disturbance lead to the suspect's escape. Eventually, the suspect was reacquired and placed inside of a more secure sanitarium…Smith's Grove…
Los Angeles, California…
At one eleven am, the patient, a Caucasian female of twenty-nine years of age, attempted to escape the custody of the Los Angeles County Police Department as they prepared to transport her to a new sanitarium, as the Pescadero State Hospital was undergoing extreme renovations due to the same patient's repeated escape attempts. Her physician, Dr. Peter Silberman, insisted on her transfer to a more secure location to ensure the safety of her son, whom she seemed obsessed with 'beyond the nature of a worried mother.' Dr. Silberman, however, elected to remain with her after her transfer to continue his efforts to reach a breakthrough with her. In order to accommodate both, the patient was transferred to Smith's Grove…
