The story begins with Samuel Loom escaping with the Matheson Collection of 17th Century Coins, a collection he stole with an estimated worth of 8 million dollars. Deciding it’d be best to hide his loot and wait for police activity to die down, he ventured to the basement of the Decaster House, a seemingly haunted home with a twisted past. While burying his stolen coins a large wooden beam broke from the ceiling and landed on his back, pinning him to the ground. Unable to move, Loom was trapped for 5 days, eventually dying from starvation.
