| Plot Summary of University |
"The University at Brea has started a new semester. There has always been a great amount of violence here but this year it is a bloodbath. Rapes, suicides, racially motivated crimes and murders are becoming the everyday norm. Only a handful of people realize that what is going on in the University is just plain madness. They try to put an end to all of the tortures and bizarre murders without becoming one of the possessed maniacs populating the campus. What they uncover is truly terrifying. It seems that the University at Brea is a living entity and when the semester ends in December, it will have graduated into an evil that will spread."
Alicia, Resident Scholar
