In this modern adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft's classic story, The Terrible Old Man, a trio of would-be burglars target an ancient reclusive lady at her run down house on the outskirts of town, drawn in by rumor of her hoarded wealth. Predator becomes prey as the burglars discover that there is more to this old woman than they bargained for. Coming full circle, it was all a set up - a ploy to offer up souls for the terrible old woman's amusement.
