Junica is a well-known horror and suspense writer, but after a tragic accident, her creativity seems to have vanished. The once-prolific storyteller now struggles to come up with even a single new idea. Every day, her inbox is flooded with messages from fans begging for her next book, and her editor is constantly asking for the next manuscript. But no matter how hard she tries, the moment she sits in front of her laptop, her imagination freezes-and so do her fingers. Walang bagong plot. Walang bagong nobela. Pakiramdam niya tuloy ay tuluyan nang nawala sa kanya ang nag-iisang bagay na kaya niyan gawin para mabuhay. Ang magsulat at manakot. Until she decides to go on a vacation na malayo sa pamilya niya. Bagong lugar. Bagong mga tao. Bagong story plot na pwede niyang isulat. Pero makapagsulat na nga kaya siya ng nobelang katatakutan? O madadala niya sa totoong buhay ang mga katatakutan na dati lang ay isinusulat niya? Lalo na kapag nalaman niya na ang lugar na pinagba-bakasyunan niya... Ay isang kuta pala ng mga baliw.
