Terror Asylum (Psychiatric Hospital, Insane Asylum, Mental Patient Horror)
Kidnapping, psychological torture, dental torture, force-feeding, isolation, padded cells, straight jackets and ultimately the destruction of her very mind, all await Marie in the 'Terror Asylum'
Marie is a psychiatric nurse, working on a secure unit which detains patients when they've been sectioned under the mental health act. She's generally been kind and considerate to patients over the years, but when some patients were 'naughty' and not co-operative, refusing medication or simply not doing as they were told, she'd occasionally resorted to sedation and restraint as a punitive measure.
One night, after work, when leaving the unit. she has a sinister sensation that someone is following her. When she's chloroformed and kidnapped, she wakes up in a cell in an old abandoned insane asylum, wearing a straightjacket. Who has captured her? What tortures do they have in store for her?
It quickly becomes clear, Marie has been captured by a deranged ex-patient, who is hell-bent on revenge, determined to punish Marie for her abuse of authority, in a style which reflects the crime - the abuse of patients in a psychiatric unit. As Marie spends longer and longer isolated and restrained in a padded cell, treated as a patient, forcibly drugged and more, she starts to feel 'like' a patient and has to fight to retain her identity. Few, opportunities to escape do arise, and when you're restrained and hung-over from being drugged, it's surely only a matter of time before you end up back in your padded cell, terrified of what torture your captor has lined up for you next.
When a wandering urban explorer stumbles upon your locked padded cell, it seems like you might have one last throw of the dice, one last bid for freedom. With her sinister, deranged captor determined to destroy Marie's mind though, it's still not certain, Marie will ever escape the 'Terror Asylum' with her life, or her mind intact.
