Southern California's Bray University was once famous for its unshakable traditions; it seemed that everything in him was unchanged and orderly. But this semester he started to change. Started... to come to life. Strange shadows, blacker than night, creep into the dark parking lot out of nowhere. The university caretaker, for no apparent reason, wants to become a professor himself - and of very unusual sciences. And the sixth floor of the library, where especially valuable books are stored, is closed to ordinary readers in the evening. Those who have been there know well why... Because the university is going to teach its carefree students a good lesson. A lesson in fear.
