Rian Burman, a struggling horror novelist seeking inspiration, checks into a remote motel to finish his book. Haunted by heartbreak and creative paralysis, Rian begins writing a story about a woman named Katie, a drug counselor fleeing a violent stalker. But as he writes, the line between fiction and reality begins to blur, his scenes start coming true. At the same motel, the real Katie is hiding from a deranged ex–mailman turned serial killer. When Rian and Katie meet, their shared experiences confirm the impossible: his manuscript is somehow manifesting real events, including the stalker’s murders. As the deaths around them escalate, Rian realizes he might be both the author and the architect of the horror unfolding.
