An authoritative reconstruction of the most famous warship of its time.

This is a tale about dealing with a living nightmare. The Dark Presence is a spirit that has lived for hundreds of years and as time passes, this dark presence becomes more and more creative in the ways of hauntings. There are two families that are tormented by this dark spirit. This spirit could be viewed as a lawyer from Hell but is dealt with by instruction. Imagine being a child and being singled out by this dark presence the moment you move into your new home because you are a brilliant lad. Imagine that you have no choice but to deal with this dark presence and your parents are virtually powerless to stop it. Step into this house and the spirit will portray itself as a clown. Step into a dark world that is based on a childhood nightmare. Step into a place that takes you into underground portals, some which will exist in your mind.
