Founded by the O'Kane family, Hawthorne was built on land that served as a synapse between the physical world and a [[reservoir of evil]], meaning that unusual deaths occurred in the area dating back to the [[13th century]]. The O'Kanes served as its directors from its inception. | Founded by the O'Kane family, Hawthorne was built on land that served as a synapse between the physical world and a [[reservoir of evil]], meaning that unusual deaths occurred in the area dating back to the [[13th century]].

Dr Dove wrote the clinic's [[brochure]]. He was a [[sensitive]] and was aware of Hawthorne's history. He planned to unleash the reservoir of evil at [[perihelion]] in [[1994]] out of scientific and personal curiosity, a plan to which an ageing Dr O'Kane was also party to. Dr Dove arranged for Daniel to be brought back to Hawthorne under the name of "Patient Zero". This had the effect of attracting Daniel's son [[Peter Russell]] to the clinic. When the [[Care in the Community]] scheme meant that Hawthorne was to be closed, Russell kept it open. | Dr Dove wrote the clinic's [[brochure]].

There were eight deaths following Daniel's transfer to Hawthorne, which attracted the attention of [[Preternatural Research Bureau|P.R.O.B.E.]]'s [[Liz Shaw]] and [[Louise Bayliss]]. Following the death of [[William Bruffin]], Dr Dove was arrested on suspicion of his murder before being killed himself. Liz and Russell discovered the identity of Patient Zero and Liz realised that the reservoir needed Russell and Daniel together at perihelion to break free. In a moment of clarity, Daniel jumped in front of a possessed Russell's knife. | There were eight deaths following Daniel's transfer to Hawthorne, which attracted the attention of [[Preternatural Research Bureau|P.R.O.B.E.]]'s [[Liz Shaw]] and [[Louise Bayliss]].
