In Bolingbrook, IL, when Rebecca Kensing goes to sleep one summer night in 1975, she is visited by three faceless figures who begin to haunt her dreams. Every morning when she wakes, she is covered in a sticky, slimy substance that encases more and more of her body each time.
Scared that she will become permanently cocooned, Rebecca goes with her parents to the local doctor. There, a nurse has a plan for helping Rebecca, but the plan seems even more ludicrous than the problem. Of course, doing nothing may be the most dangerous plan of all.
Welcome to Hometown Paranormal where everything is fake and nothing is real, but every hometown gets its own paranormal story.
