What it's about:<table border="0" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="0" width="100%"> <tbody><tr> <td class="quotearea"> Since losing his wife in a terrible accident several years ago, neurobiologist Dr. David Styles has become a recluse, rarely leaving his English manor, Dread Hill House. One Day, mentalist Samantha Everett appears unexpectedly on his doorstep - just when Styles is on the lookout for a new assistant. Sam gets the job.

 

Her first task is to find six volunteers from Oxford University to take part in one of Dr. Styles' experiments. The experiment begins harmlessly enough, but a series of inexplicable incidents is soon set in motion, while Styles is haunted by his beloved dead wife. It's now up to Sam to solve the mysteries of Dread Hills House. </td> </tr> </tbody></table>

i love the genre (so many titles for me to catchup on when my PC arrives...), and ive heard nothing but good for years now @ Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Father, so this might be worth checking out.
