All Dan wanted was to celebrate his anniversary in the beautiful Freedom Hotel with Judith, his loving wife of 13 years.
It was an important place for them, a place of special thoughts and
Yet from the moment they entered the lobby Dan recognized that something was different.
They had celebrated their anniversary there only three years earlier, and now it seemed the hotel he loved was pushing him away, telling him to leave while he still could.
Dan didn’t listen.
Then the hallucinations began, if they were hallucinations.
Taunting, tormenting, chasing his sanity and causing him to remember things he didn’t want to remember and perhaps do things he didn’t want to do.
As from a siren of a forgotten life Dan was being dragged down into a world he could not see, by a Melody so strong he could not pull away
Was his future already formed for him by this past he could not remember?
Would Dan be able to escape before he was pulled down for good?
Even if he found the answers, would Danny ever be allowed his Freedom?

Now enter, if you dare. Join Dan and Judith in their descent into a world they would have never imagined, but as you journey through their nightmare, take caution, because you, too, can easily become caught in their world.
Will YOU be able to escape?
In the early 90s my company had discounts for the employs in many areas, from airlines, to restaurants, to hotels.
West of Houston was a new hotel. Shirley and I used to see it being built when we were in that area. Finally, after it was completed, with the discount we were able to spend a night at the hotel. We loved the lobby and comfortable chairs and couches to relax. We were near a new mall and could walk through a covered walkway to get there. There was even a separate movie theater.
While in the hotel we would ride the elevator and check out the different floors. We saw the suites at the top floor and decided that was our next goal.
Sure enough we were later able to stay in one of the suites and we loved it. We spent a few more times in that hotel bringing another couple once, and some friends another time. I guess you could say it was our dream hotel, and we experienced nothing except good times there.
A few years later we decided to stay there again just the two of us.
As soon as we walked into the lobby I noticed something different. It wasn’t the same as all the other times we had been there. As in the book, there was a slight musky smell throughout the lobby. The hotel was not as clean or bright as we remembered. It seemed to be deteriorating. Something just didn’t feel right. It wasn’t the happy place we remembered, we no longer felt like we belonged there.
To make matters worse, the room we were given was not in the main part of the hotel at all, but on the outside in sort of a walkway beside the swimming pool. That area, and the rooms were no better than any of the cheap motels we used to have to stay in when we were always moving and could not afford anything special.
We even went back to the mall: it too was almost empty and seemed to be on the verge of shutting down.
Never the less, we stayed there that night, but that was the last time in that hotel.
However the feeling I had walking into the lobby stayed with me and I knew that somewhere there was a story.
Finally I took those feelings and wrote Freedom.
Little did even I know the darkness I would find in that hotel.
