He's a wannabe rock star with the know-how to match-a self-indulgent musician on the cutting edge of cool. Now, residing in the legendary Hotel Boulderado, it seems like Jon Cells might finally be on the brink of achieving his dreams as he delves deep into the secrets of recording killer tracks at the local BlueStar Studios.
So when the hotel plans to throw a blowout bash to celebrate the upcoming movie Halloween, Jon couldn't care less. He'd rather be in the studio recording than at a cheesy costume party filled with ghosts and goblins.
Meanwhile, a freethinking revolution has created an influx of hippies, new age Buddhists, and vegetarians who immediately clash with the mainstream establishment of Boulder, Colorado, as they try to establish the city as their new home. But when unexpected guests infiltrate the Hotel Boulderado's Halloween shindig, even the most skeptical present are left wondering what to believe.
And when the unsavory activities of BlueStar Studio owner Duke Dunn draw the attention of federal agents, their investigations lead to more questions than answers-as bizarre activities taking place in the surrounding Rocky Mountains are brought to light.
