Title: At Van Eyckmann's request
Description: Eight men are gathered at a failing Brooklyn Gentlemen's Club one stormy October night to hear the last will and testament of their late colleague, Lars Van Eyckmann. Within three days--on Halloween Eve--they will find themselves pitted against each other, unwitting pawns of the horrifying truth behind Van Eyckmann's Request: a family curse originating from terrible atrocities committed in the Dutch East Indies Spice Trade of the early 1600s.
