The House on the Edge of Homerville

Frank Bonner is an escaped con on the run from the law. In Baltimore, Maryland he boards a bus to avoid being captured.
He ends up in a small town called 'Homerville' a little town he had never heard of. During a brief layover he meets and becomes friendly with a little old man at a local coffee shop. The little old man offers him $500 in cash if he can stay overnight - alone - in a local house that he himself owned on the edge of town.
DESPERATE for money Bonner takes the man up on the bet not knowing that it is a feat no one had done before and come out alive!
