He sends a monster to kill the boyfriend but does it by using the boyfriend’s fear against him.
Colton’s mom is worried about him and sends him to a religious camp in the hopes of saving him. But the camp turns out to be a hell on Earth—where abuse of every kind is normal. The only good thing in the camp is Erin, who instantly sees the goodness in him. But soon the abuse gets to Colton and he unleashes his monsters. The campers, counselors and administrators must face off against their childhood fear—but not just in their dreams, right there in camp.
Will Colton give in to his dark side or will Erin help him discover his long buried inner goodness?
