Inspired by a real serial killer: A disgraced detective on the trail of a serial killer and a group of student filmmakers cross paths at a Halloween fright farm in the dead of winter.

Still reeling from a traumatic childhood experience with an alcoholic mother and her deranged carnie boyfriend, a mild mannered milquetoast finds himself at the mercy of a monstrous alter ego: a sadistic killer clown with a tickling fetish.
