The story

The Creed family—Louis, Rachel, their children Ellie and Gage and their pet cat Church—move from Chicago to rural Ludlow, Maine, after Louis accepts a job as a local physician.

Louis awakens from the supposed dream to find his feet covered in dirt.

He now stinks, moves sluggishly, his eyes glow gold and he is vicious toward Louis.
