Synopsis
Thomas Harbor est un scientifique qui travaille d'une façon indépendante sur la connaissance du cerveau et de la conscience. Il fait une découverte cruciale qu'il rend publique : il a trouvé d'une façon indubitable que la conscience humaine existait en dehors du corps et survivait dans un autre monde à la mort du sujet. Convaincues qu'une autre vie plus heureuse les attendait après leur mort, de plus en plus de personnes optent pour le suicide. Le professeur Harbor est déstabilisé par cette situation et décide de continuer ses recherches en secret dans un château sur une île isolée en compagnie d'un certain nombre de patients qui le soutiennent.Actors

Alors que la police s'apprête à l'arrêter dans la chambre froide où il stocke ses victimes, Verge (qui est en fait Virgile) lui apparaît et le guide vers les enfers. Lors de leur voyage, Jack lui raconte son histoire personnelle coupée en cinq chapitres, chacun desquels est fondé sur un meurtre en particulier.
