What part of ourselves do we send into the future? A Ghost Chases the Horizon explores the relationship between time and spirit through the lens of the community surrounding the Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum. The hospital went by many names during its operation, and its troubled history is retold from the memory held by its thick, limestone walls.

Weston Hospital, 1999, After a paranormal encounter, an urban spelunker blackmails a disgraced local law enforcement officer into allowing her to continue investigating the shuttered facility. What the young adult finds is a kinship that transcends time.

West Virginia Hospital for the Insane, 1905, A falsely-committed widow births a child sired by her doctor. As the doctor's hostility grows when his paternity becomes apparent, the widow plots her freedom with help from a patient with dubious intent.

Weston State Hospital, 1935, A cantankerous farmer self-commits after an incident in a funeral parlor. While awaiting evaluation in the overcrowded facility, he develops delusions that the hospital must be razed on order of the U.S. President.

Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum, 2019 and beyond, An adrift divorcee works to uncover the truth behind a nineteenth-century serial killer for a friend's manuscript. The more he puzzles together the hospital's mysteries, the more his sanity is consumed by the task.
