Director: Tim Riedel

Deep in the desolate wilds of rural Canada, a chilling question takes shape: what if a crippling mental illness could become a living nightmare—a monster hiding just beyond sight? Having severed all contact with her poisonous sibling, Elyse returns to her family’s old homestead, hoping to mend her fractured mind. Her fragile recovery shatters when a hideous beast emerges from the darkness, drawn to every ounce of her pain. Now Elyse must face the demons she fled—both inside and out—or risk losing her sanity, her loved ones, and everything she holds dear.
