Joshua and Margaret have been married for 43 years. They retired into a cozy red cottage 23 years ago.

Something however, was wrong. Benny, their grandson, kept getting hurt when he came over. Marks appeared on his arms and legs. Benny would cry when asked to be in certain rooms. Rooms where he said the bad thing lived.

Joshua has marks and cuts on his ankles. The only one unaffected was Margaret.

Until that's is, the monster hurt one year old grandbaby June.

When Pedro the Chihuahua was put down, that's when Margaret finally felt the pain of the monster.
