Floating Dragon

An adulterous housewife named Stony Friedgood picks up a man at a bar but is brutally murdered by the patron. At the same time her husband Leo, working with the Department of Defense, is involved in the cover up of DRG-16, a nerve gas that escapes its containment and rushes into the town of Hampstead. Leo works to stop the public from finding out about the gas that leaked, which already killed three men at the lab. When he arrives home the gas is above Hampstead, causing deaths and hallucinations. Meanwhile, the descendants of the founders of Hampstead have returned. Richard Allbee, a former child actor turned architect with a wife and child on the way, returns from London and is plagued by dreams and visions of his former co-actor Billy Bentley, who died: Graham Williams, an old historian who murdered a serial killer in his past and discovered a cycle of evil in the town that arrives every thirty years in the name of a monster named the Dragon; Patsy McCloud, the abused wife of Les McCloud who has psychic abilities, and Tabby Smithfield, a young child with an alcoholic father who has similar abilities like Patsy. The four connect with each other and learn from Graham that an older evil has poisoned the town and wreaks havoc, as is happening at that moment. Several of the locals experience frightening visions they believe was brought on by DRG but was in fact created by the Dragon. The Dragon, originally businessman Gideon Winter, had bought land from the town centuries ago and killed women and children, was discovered and murdered by the founders, leading to his vendetta against the town and its inhabitants. The Dragon would possess people each cycle to commit atrocities, such as Bates Krell. Williams had confronted Bates Krell years ago and murdered him, after discovering his acts of villainy. Williams then devoted himself to uncover the history which he shares with the other three.
