There was a bird who watched us all and pecked at us one by one...
Day by day we tried to fight we ended up having to run...
We shouldn't have set our camp here.
We should have be sure and safe.
But now that we set the tents upright there's no saying what's at stake...
At night we stare up to the stars and look up to the sky
And I see the bird... That horrid bird... 
With the unfathomable black eye...
~~~~~~
Some teenagers decide to go on a camping trip unsupervised to spend their summer break together after not being able to see each other for years. One night they decide to tell scary stories and one of them tells of a killer bird that watches people at night and kills in the morning. They all laugh it off until one of them disappears in the morning. They all go in the forest to search for them when they hear some rusting in the bushes behind them. It takes one glance to make them want to run...
Now that they are safe back in their tent they are hesitant to go outside... knowing that the outside might come in...

Emmy's life is going just as she'd planned: She's living in her own apartment, dancing every day and is just leaps away from being named her company's next Prima ballerina. And she's only 17. But all of Emmy's plans come to a screeching halt when the FBI shows up at her door to let her know that she's being stalked by a serial killer. Suddenly, the safe, insulated world she created for herself is riddled with violence, fear...and a growing pile of dead bodies. At first Emmy wants nothing more than to forget her chilling new reality - but her admirer isn't finished with her yet, and before she knows it, Emmy's stuck in a nightmare she can't dance her way out of.
