Gregory Tucker was a good, God-fearing Christian until his best friend, Charles, planted the seed of doubt inside him. Luckily, Arthur Troupe, the man who speaks to God, has just the solution.

Trapped within the bleak and sterile confines of Buncombe Center for Troubled Boys, Gregory, along with his fellow patients, must do battle with their own minds and the dark desires that lurk within to earn salvation from the God they so blindly turned their backs on. However, the internal struggles of their blossoming sexualities will soon become the least of their worries, as they uncover a dark plot by an ancient, hungry deity who seeks only to feast on their sins.

Nightmarish creatures spy on the children in the night, the caretakers work ceaselessly to cover freshly dug holes throughout the property, and the elusive and enigmatic Patient No. 8, whom Troupe keeps locked away from the other patients for their own safety, keeps trying to escape. They'll have to learn to work together and find acceptance within themselves or face the wrath of God and His mad followers.

Patient No. 8 is a tragic story of religious trauma, conversion therapy, LGBTQIA+ discovery, and psychological and cosmic horror. It's cast of characters feature young men and one transgender woman on the cusp of discovering themselves and the adults who torment them for their own moral gain. This story is for neither the faint of heart nor the narrow of mind.
