GCT asks: What’s going on at the ‘House on the Cliff”?

0

GALION — Something is wrong at the “House on the Cliff,” and its occupants want to know if the reported haunting is true. Overlooking a northern Great Lake, the house is believed to have been a stop on the Underground Railroad, active in the Civil War era.

Lovely heiress Ellen Clayton ( Erin Shawk) is wheelchair bound, and attended to by Dr. Lane (Scott Tinnermeir) . They share the house with Ellen’s stepmother Karen (Cheryl Russell), and housekeeper Jenny (Nancy Green).

Miss Pepper (Kelly Mann) arrives to put things in order, and assist Dr. Corey Phillips (Eric Palmer), a recent replacement in Ellen’s care regimen. Dr. Phillips believes Ellen should be able to walk. When a sudden and chilling murder occurs, the occupants of the house live out a mystery involving underground tunnels, sliding doors and a secret staircase. There is an unknown man who appears … apparently from the waters below the cliff.

Romance and comedy ensue, baffling the residents and the audience.
