Nightmare Man

Ellen Morris receives a mysterious demonic African mask in the mail, a gesture that seems innocent yet sets off a chain of horrifying events. As she begins to interact with the mask, strange occurrences begin to plague her, leading to a growing sense of dread.

Ellen soon finds herself tormented by a malevolent entity she calls 'The Nightmare Man.' This presence invades her reality, leading her to question her sanity and the nature of the hallucinations she is experiencing.

Despite Ellen's alarming experiences, her husband William and her doctors dismiss her claims. They believe she is suffering from paranoid schizophrenia and arrange for her to be sent to a mental health facility for further evaluation, further isolating her in her struggle.

On the way to the hospital, tragedy unfolds when their car runs out of gas. William goes to the nearest gas station, leaving Ellen alone in the car, a moment that serves as the calm before the storm as she faces the Nightmare Man once more.

While staring at the mesmerizing sunset, Ellen is confronted by the Nightmare Man that reignites her terror. In a terrified frenzy, she escapes into the surrounding dense woods, unsure whether the figure is real or a manifestation of her mind.

In her frantic flight, Ellen stumbles upon a secluded country house where two couples are enjoying a weekend retreat. Panting and wild-eyed, she barges in, warning them of a killer on the loose, but her erratic behavior leaves them skeptical of her claims.

The couples, concerned but wary of Ellen's erratic demeanor, decide to contact her husband, William. He informs them of Ellen's troubled mental state and implores them to keep their distance, warning that she could be dangerous to herself and others, while assuring them he's on his way.

As night falls, the tranquility of the country house is shattered when members of the group begin to fall victim to the mysterious killer. The tension escalates as they realize that the Nightmare Man may not just be in Ellen's mind, causing chaos among them.

When William finally arrives at the house, a shocking truth is revealed. It turns out he orchestrated the entire horrific scenario, hiring a killer to play the role of the Nightmare Man in a twisted scheme to dispose of his wife Ellen.

Just when Mia, the last remaining survivor with Ellen, thinks all hope is lost, the killer attempts to finish her off. In a moment of shocking transformation, Ellen reveals the true horror that resides within her, as her latent demonic nature surfaces.

In a dramatic confrontation, Mia comes face to face with the demonized Ellen. The duel reaches a climax as Mia manages to kill Ellen, but this victory comes at a steep price as the demon's essence transfers to her, setting the stage for a new cycle of horror.

The narrative concludes with a chilling transformation: Mia, who has just overcome the threat of Ellen, becomes the new host for the demon's malevolent spirit. This twist leaves viewers with a haunting realization that the cycle of terror may continue through her.
