Theo, a 500 year old Vampire, has made a new home in a small town in Western Massachusetts, stalking it’s residents in search of the perfect humans to spirit away to replace her lost brood. After all, a home is nothing without a family…
Best friends, Ed and Liam, are spending a long weekend together only to find themselves victims of a violent attack. They quickly come to find out their assailant is an unhinged elderly Vampire named Theo. Before the night is over, the two find themselves not only abducted, but locked away behind the walls of Theo’s rotting home as unwilling members of her new brood. More hellish still, they’ve become undead themselves.
Each passing night plunges the two friends deeper into Theo’s putrefying nightmare of a world. It doesn’t take them long to understand running isn’t an option. After all, when you’ve become one of the undead yourself where can you call home except with the creature who made you?
Ed and Liam must learn to navigate Theo’s world if they want to survive it.
