When a series of gruesome murders start plaguing a small [[New England]] town, people suspect it's a [[vampire]]. Ronny (Michael Barra), manager of a local comic book store and, decides to kidnap Anna (Elise Rovinsky), a woman who he believes is with Satan. He locks her up in the attic of the historical home. He's joined by two thugs, Karl (Cuyle Carvin) and Eddie (Joe Kathrein), who enjoy tormenting the woman until she confesses that she's the vampire. All they want is a confession Ronny can record to sell to the media, however the captive alarms them with odd behavior. Their dreams of becoming rich and famous turn into a violent nightmare.
