Gray Matter
 

"Ever since losing his wife in a terrible car accident many years ago, neuro-biologist Dr. David Styles has become a recluse, leaving his English mansion Dread Hill House only on rare occasions. One day student and street artist Samantha Everett shows up on his door step unexpectedly, at a time Styles just happens to look for a new assistant. Her first assignment involves finding six volunteers for an experiment planned by Styles at Oxford University. The experiment begins harmless enough, but soon strange things start happening. Styles is visited by his beloved, but deceased, wife. Now it is up to Sam to solve the mysteries of Dread Hill House."
