Seance in the Asylum #1 (Henderson Cover)
1865. Defrauded spiritual medium Alicia Wilkinson is brought to The Ashcroft Hospital at the behest of Dr. John James Templeton. He offers Alicia a second chance to revive her once-thriving career: Perform a séance amongst the patients in order to drawing out their mental maladies. Alicia performs her first series of séances with the patients-including traumatized soldiers returning from the Civil War, women whose sanity has slipped through their fingers-only to realize their sessions might work all too well. What no one knows is Alicia is a fake. A liar. A cheat... So why are the patients suddenly acting possessed?
