Bullied, ignored, and beaten down, Eli Turner was always the outcast of Meadowgrove High. But when he stumbles upon an abandoned chemical factory, everything changes. A mysterious crimson liquid lurking in an old industrial vat transforms him into something not quite human—something powerful, deadly, and insatiably hungry.
As Eli discovers his newfound ability to reduce people to water with a mere breath, he sets out on a path of vengeance against those who tormented him. One by one, his bullies vanish, leaving nothing but shallow puddles behind. But the more he kills, the hungrier the power grows, consuming his mind, twisting his humanity into something monstrous.
When his childhood friend, Lily, discovers his horrifying secret, she becomes the last tether to his former self. As the town descends into fear, and the police close in, Eli faces a terrifying realization: he was never in control of the power—something older, darker was using him as its vessel.
Now, with the hunger screaming for one final kill, Eli must make an impossible choice: continue his reign of terror, or sacrifice himself to stop the horror from spreading forever.
But some things can never truly die… and deep beneath the earth, the hunger waits.
🔥 A chilling horror thriller about revenge, transformation, and the price of power.
