Abigail

The story begins with a serene ballet recital featuring a 12-year-old girl named Abigail. Her delicate, doll-like appearance gives off an air of purity that starkly contrasts with the malevolence soon to descend upon her. Unbeknownst to her and the captivated audience, three shadowy figures lurk nearby, observing her every graceful move. As the performance reaches its exhilarating climax, they seize their moment, abducting Abigail and spiral her away in a van that vanishes into the darkness.

Their chilling destination is a sprawling, maze-like mansion, where the enigmatic Lambert resides, flanked by his eclectic band of criminals. Each member, possessing their unique backstory, plays a pivotal role in this sinister plot: Joey, who harbors a quiet intensity; Frank, a lawman haunted by his past; Sammy, a troublemaking femme fatale; Dean, a loose cannon; Peter, a menacing figure with ties to the Quebec mafia; and Rickles, a man of few words whose eyes suggest a hidden sorrow.

As Lambert assigns them code names, it becomes chillingly clear that Abigail is a pawn in a larger scheme—held hostage for a $50 million ransom from her affluent father, Kristof Lazar. The deluded criminals are tempted by the promise of $7 million each, provided they can hold strong under duress. Silence resonates within the mansion as Lambert confiscates their phones, further isolating them from the outside world.

The night devolves into chaos as the group indulges in debauchery and reckless betting, each attempting to unveil the secrets of their companions. Joey, a master of human emotion, progressively uncovers their tragic truths: Frank’s turmoil over his previous life as an officer; Peter’s dark underbelly linked to the mafia; and Sammy’s privileged existence overshadowed by her rebellious ventures.

In an unexpected twist, Joey visits the captive Abigail, forming a surprising bond. During their exchange, Joey hints at her own turmoil involving a son whose name she keeps hidden—prompting Abigail to affectionately name him “Justin.” Before leaving, Abigail, sensing the impending horror, painfully apologizes for what lies ahead.

Meanwhile, the reckless Dean’s clumsy attempts to woo Sammy result in tragedy; his gruesome decapitated head becomes the harrowing discovery that shatters the group’s fragile sanity. The shocking truth dawns upon Frank upon realizing the hostage he has encountered is Kristof Lazar’s daughter, a chilling revelation that recalls his own bitter confrontation with Valdez, the notorious enforcer.

Navigating through their dwindling trust, Joey and Rickles engage in an apprehensive dialogue, doubting Frank’s motives. As they grapple with the real threat, the night bleeds into unimaginable horror as Rickles meets an unceremonious end at the claws of an unseen attacker.

The facade crumbles further when Frank suggests eliminating Abigail, inciting Joey’s fierce resistance as they attempt to shield the innocent girl. Venturing into Abigail’s chambers reveals her true nature—a deadly vampire with a turbulent history. In a startling escapade, the group desperately attempts to neutralize her supernatural prowess using garlic, crosses, and weapons, only to witness Abigail thrive amidst the chaos.

Amidst the intensity, Joey finally manages to subdue Abigail with a tranquilizer, imprisoning her in an improvised cage, hoping it can endure against her monstrous wrath. In a chilling twist, as Abigail awakens, she unearths the sordid stories of her captors, revealing their ties to her father and their shared destiny—a descent into darkness that implicates them all in his wicked game.

Unexpectedly, Abigail’s escape attempt leads to chaos within the group as they scramble for survival against both each other and her relentless power. Her vampiric control over Sammy swings the balance towards brutality as she executes Peter in cold blood, rendering the remaining members gripped by terror.

As their situation becomes increasingly dire, Joey learns from Abigail the secret to breaking the vampire curse: eliminating the very being who transformed her. Thus, an unsteady alliance forms as they unite against Frank, who has succumbed to the vampiric allure and seeks to usurp Lazar’s empire.

In the climactic showdown, Joey faces off against the formidable Frank, revealing an unexpected alliance with Abigail, which ignites a fierce battle as truths about their identities come to light. With quick thinking, Joey employs sunlight to combat the vampire threat, ultimately leading to the downfall of Frank.

In a fleeting final confrontation, Joey stands against the shadowy figure of Kristof Lazar, her fate hanging precariously. His looming intentions become clear: eliminate the one who disrupted his grand design. Yet, just as the scene threatens to close on despair, an unexpected alliance emerges, shifting the dynamic in favor of a new dawn, as Joey escapes with the critical knowledge about the fate of her son, Caleb. The reality of what lies ahead remains uncertain as she drives into the night, pursuing renewed resolve while leaving a tangled web of chaos behind.
