It is said that a mirror can trap a person's soul... Martin Williams is
a broke, two-bit screenwriter living in Hollywood, but when he finds the
very mirror that once hung in the house of a murdered 1930s child star;
he happily spends all he has on it. He has long obsessed over the tragic
story of Boofuls, a beautiful and successful actor who was slaughtered
and dismembered by his grandmother.
However, he soon discovers that this dream buy is in fact a living
nightmare; the mirror was not only in Boofuls house, but witness to the
death of this blond-haired and angelic child, which in turn has created
a horrific and devastating portal to a hellish parallel universe. So
when Martin's landlord loses his grandson it is soon apparent that the
mirror is responsible. But if a little boy has gone into the mirror,
what on earth is going to come out?
