![]() Tales From The Museum
The Regional Museum in Johnson City, Tennessee has been the site of some strange goings-on ever since it was first built. Legends surround the place: tales of murders, mysterious disappearances, and bizarre religious orders. Some of these were "documented" by a PBS special, but most are passed on by word of mouth. Most of the staff there doesn't believe a word of it ... but Special Services coordinator Keith Nash? He's starting to think ... well, he doesn't know what to think.
All in all, the museum is an interesting and challenging place to work ... and things keep happening to make it more interesting all the time.
The mysterious poisoning of a graduate student brings Keith Nash and his colleagues into a confrontation with a sinister cult. Their intentions are unclear, but the threat they pose is certain and immediate. Will Nash, Dr. Stein and Dr. Mancuso be able to overcome the danger of the Cult of Serpents?

The museum has been bequeathed some priceless pieces of art from the collection of the late Carlo Colletti. One of the items is an ancient tapestry dating back to the dark ages, featuring an image of the Grim Reaper standing on a pile of human skulls. But one day before the auction, a Dr. Augustus Spears shows up, claiming to be the rightful owner of the tapestry. According to the doctor, the tapestry was woven during the Black Plague and is cursed... and must be destroyed at all costs.
