Prologue:
The books had a thick layer of dust, that lay sprinkled across the corridor floor. All doors closed and hadn't been opened since 1989, that was the year Jennifer Spring was found hanging from the staircase. The building had darkened and the walls had started to crumble along with the memories of her vanished soul. No arrangements were made for this girls funeral. Only eighteen years of age, yet she felt it was right to leave this world. She had drank strong disinfectant, then hung herself. The rope still remained untouched, since it was cut from her thin, bruised neck.
This building was a psychiatric hospital until it was closed down on 17th December 1988 due to insufficient funding. Yet this girl killed herself a year after the hospital was locked down, no one was meant to enter. They found her seven weeks after her suicide. Her body was already decaying and attracting organisms from the grounds surrounding the building. This case was closed in 1989 when the newspapers had announced that no further comments will be made by the police. Written down in black ink from a 1980s typewriter was her death certificate. The cause of death was suicide. Her name was Jennifer Spring and she was with child.
