A once-promising horror writer has hit rock bottom: years without success, drowning in debt, and on the verge of collapse. In desperation, he performs an occult ritual to summon a demon who promises to give him the stories he can no longer write. The pact works—but at a terrible cost. Each new story demands a sacrifice: a pound of flesh. As his fame grows, his body and soul deteriorate, and inspiration becomes inseparable from pain.
