After her father suffers a devastating heart attack, Charlotte abandons an advertising career in New York and returns home to Minnesota to help out at her dad's pub. Since college, Charlotte has struggled with sleep paralysis where she is haunted by a shadowy creature that continues to prey upon her in her sleep. Desperate for answers, she signs up for an experimental sleep study. Charlotte's life quickly becomes interwoven with five other strangers who are also part of the study. Scott, a charming drunk regular at her father's bar. Brenda, a sexually provocative photographer. Deanna, a sad and quiet office worker. Jerek, a clairvoyant bartender. And Charlie, an unemployed stoner. The darkness that binds each of them becomes stronger as their lives intertwine, unleashing a long dormant demon into their collective world. Set in inner city Minneapolis, these strangers find love, loss, heartache, and clarity as they unite to try and banish the demon with the glowing hand back to hell.
