The film is an adaptation of the urban legend of supernatural entities lurking everywhere. Of an entity who would be ready at all times to pick on us when we are unaware. The film is a modern take on the urban legend. It is a chill fest that promises not to allow its audience to sleep at night. Debutante director has created a horror film in such a matter-of-fact manner that it seems to spook the audience even more.
