She's alone, pregnant, and being pursued by creatures that want her baby. Nosocomephobia (fear of hospitals) and tokophobia (fear of child birth) are two major themes in this short, heart-pumping thriller. Taylor is a mother-to-be for the first time. When she goes into labor, she goes to the hospital and unwittingly steps into a trap. Newborns are the food of choice for this race of creatures, and they want Taylor's. Are you afraid of hospitals or child birth? You will be after you read this.
