Synopsis

A shopping trip promised, yet shadowed by an unsettling presence. The allure of retail therapy couldn't quite dispel the creeping unease, the feeling that something unseen lingered just beyond the brightly lit storefronts. Perhaps a cleansing ritual is in order, a desperate plea for protection against the things that go bump in the marketplace. Or perhaps, a more potent defense – a string of prayer beads, worn close to the heart, a shield against the encroaching darkness.
