On the eve of her eighteenth birthday, anxious nail-biter Amy Heller confronts her overbearing mother about their so-called family curse, a finger-devouring creature that preys on those who bite their nails, just as the monster arrives to claim her as its next victim. A gothic horror short and proof-of-concept for a feature film.

As Erin packs her old life into boxes, she overhears a violent attack in the apartment above that derails her night.
