A young, single, mother struggles to find employment outside of sex work, and gives in to being possessed by a vengeful and violent spirit where she is forced to hide the truth from boyfriend and pastor as she struggles with her faith, the law, and murderous rage -- all while avoiding becoming the victim of a notorious serial killer. 

SYNOPSIS:

After being raped and forced to give birth to her daughter, Elise Graham dropped out of school and does her best to take care of her baby. Years later, she still struggles, and makes money the only way she can now -- as a sex worker in the city. She still does her best to take care of her daughter, but it's so much harder now that the violent spirit has coerced her to let it use her body. Some nights she stalks the streets for a John, but other nights the spirit wants it's ransom - a blood sacrifice. Elise has grown tired of this struggle though, and begins to set her life straight. She returns to church and vows to get a real job, even reconnects with her estranged sister. However, a saavy detective notices Elise while on the hunt for a serial killer who is picking off streetwalkers, unaware that Elise harbors the most dangerous thing he's ever encountered. Elise must set her life straight and dissolve the pact with the spirit before either the detective, her boyfriend, or the serial killer, can close in on her.
