They were strangers. A handful of people. From different backgrounds,
living in different
towns and cities across America, they had nothing in common - except
fear. They were
victims. Cold and stark, an unknown terror gripped their dreams
and turned their days
into living nightmares. They were chosen. And they could not
escape. Deep in the heart of
a sprawling desert, a dark memory called out to them, drawing them
to the Tranquility
Motel - Where the terrifying truth was waiting...

Little Melanie had been kidnapped when she was only three. She was
nine when she was
found wandering the L.A. streets, with blank eyes. What had become
of her in all those
years of darkness ... and what was the terrible secret, clutching
at her soul, that she dared
not even whisper? Her loving mother and the police desperately hunted
for the answer.
They needed Melanie to help get to the bottom of the most savage
scene of carnage the
city had ever seen. And they would do anything to save her from
whatever dreadful force
or thing had invaded her young life. But first they would have to
save themselves from a
rising tide of terror...and from an icy evil howling through - The
Door to December.
