Not believing in his child's night scares cost David Thurston his child's life. Believing in them cost him nearly a decade of his own. It took the doctors at the Sunnyville Mental Institution seven years to convince David the only Boogeyman was in his mind. It took only a few weeks back in the outside world to convince him they might be wrong. As the people he cares most about are dealt horrible deaths, David is forced to choose between the unbelievable words of a homeless man, and the uncomforting facts of the doctors. All the while the words of his mother echo through his tormented mind...The Boogeyman will get him if he doesn't watch out.
