A coffee shop offers a respite for the cursed. A hangover masks the horrors of the previous night. A princess’s wedding gift comes with a price. A locked apartment door hides a chilling secret. A girl wakes up in an asylum and must survive, and escape. A young woman must protect the past to thwart a thief from the future. All it takes is a second…a minute…an hour…for everything to change.
