Convergence is a 2015 American horror-thriller film written and directed by Drew Hall. It stars Clayne Crawford as a police detective who, after being caught in an explosion, is sent to recover at a nearly-empty hospital that may be haunted. Ethan Embry and Mykelti Williamson co-star. It premiered at the FirstGlance Film Festival in April 2015 and was released in the United States on February 5, 2016.

In 1999, after an explosion at a women's health clinic in Atlanta, police detective Ben Walls is called back into active duty while on leave. As he investigates the scene, a second explosion goes off, and he loses consciousness. He wakes up at a hospital, and captain Miller, his superior officer, orders him to stay in bed. Eager to contact his wife and return to duty, he dresses and leaves his room, finding the hospital nearly empty. A nurse explains that most of the hospital's workers have been redirected toward a major fire in the city, which Walls assumes is the clinic bombing. The nurse directs him to a chapel, where she says several people are gathered. He finds Miller there with Ester, Jude, and Isaac. Miller gives him change to contact his wife at a payphone.

After calling his wife, Walls can only speak a few words before the line goes dead. He attempts to leave the hospital, only to find the door locked. A security guard named Peter "Grace" Grayson offers to let Walls use the phone in his office, though the line turns out dead. Grayson says he knew Walls' parents, but a man in a paramedic's uniform shoots Grayson before he can explain further. Walls binds Grayson's wound and chases the paramedic, who knocks him unconscious. Because he is not wearing his glasses, Walls does not get a good look at the man's face. Walls reports the attack to Miller, but the nurse says Grayson's body is missing. Miller and the others from the chapel believe a man named Daniel to be responsible, though they do not tell Walls.

Daniel, the paramedic, captures Jude and questions him about his belief in God. Jude says he no longer believes in God, and Daniel cuts out Jude's tongue when he curses God. After branding Jude with his cult's symbol, Daniel gains control over him. Daniel lures away the nurse when he says he has found Grayson, and he gains control over her, too, after branding her. After the nurse attacks him, Walls has a vision of his body in the hospital. Grayson briefly appears before him and explains that the situation is more complicated than being dead. Walls confronts Miller, demanding to know why nobody told him the truth, and Miller says that he was prohibited from doing because of rules. Miller orders the others to hide while he stays behind to face Daniel and his cult, but Isaac insists on helping Miller.
