Benny Anders lives alone, away from her family in unsuccessful hope she lands an acting career. She's a normal girl, living the regular start out waitress-before-actress life. Ignoring her cliche of a life, she walks home on one dark and typically stormy night she senses someone watching her on her way home from the diner. She spots bright yellow eyes through the rain, and runs home, only to hear a lonely howl and whine from her back porch.
