When 17 year old Calleigh Myles moves to White Pine Bay with her dad after having dealt with an obsessive boy, she finally believes everything is normal. Her and her dad moved into the Bates Motel, hopeful to stay there for at least a month and then rent out a house. But as time goes on, she can't help but notice something is off with the motel's owner and her son, Norman Bates. Not only that, the resident's bad-boy and Norman's half brother, Dylan Massett, has her asking even more questions. As they stay in White Pine Bay longer, the more she realizes nothing, or anyone, are as they seem.
