Silence for the Dead

Silence for the Dead

Simone St. James - 2014

Overview

In 1919, Kitty Weekes assumes a nursing role at Portis House, a secluded hospital for soldiers suffering from the psychological trauma of the Great War. The patients, hiding their mental distress within a once-grand estate, experience nervous attacks and disturbing dreams. Unseen forces seem to stir within the decaying building, and the abrupt departure of its former residents remains unexplained. A shared, terrifying nightmare plagues the patients, one they are too afraid to articulate.
