Once manifested, guilt must be addressed. Sheila Ann Lee, a narcissistic, neurotic seeker of affluence, creates her own manifestation of trauma and leaves it forlorn, driving it to seek retribution against her as she seeks to overcome her own past, a past littered with those she destroyed. As it chases her, tortures her mind, and, eventually, uses her epiphany of real emotion to beset the true love she finds, it remains unclear to her and all those seeking to protect her whether it is a product of her mental illness or a supernatural being bent on her destruction, whether she is being haunted or she is the source of her own misery, and theirs.
