IF THESE WALLS COULD TALK SYNOPSIS - Saturn Hills Asylum has a long and varied history in Valley Falls. Like the town within which it resides, the asylum is also the source of its fair share of mysteries such as the fire in 2002 that led to several deaths.

With this new evidence in hand, you enter this notorious mental health facility to get to the bottom of what really happened all those years ago. To your surprise, there are still workers on site who were employed at Saturn Hills at the time of the fire. There are also patients who were housed there in 2002. With a host of witnesses-both reliable and unreliable-who may be able to help you determine what really happened, can you find the proof needed to bring a killer to justice? Saturn Hills has lots of secrets it might whisper to you should you choose to listen. So, step inside, place your ear to one of the soot-stained walls, and determine what you can learn about those dark secrets from the past If These Walls Could Talk.
