The Willows are a wealthy entrepreneurial family that have lived in Columbia, Maryland, for generations, having made a fortune out of manufacturing shoes. Its current patriarch, Owen, oversees the shoe making factory, Willow & Sons, which is blooming with sales. However, all's not sugary with the success of his factory. Content with caring for his family, its legacy, and the factory, Owen bludgeons his employees towards achieving his extreme goals of productivity, by being exploitative and abusive. Fed up with the antics of the 'feisty mouse' (as he is unpleasantly addressed by his employees), his employees, wishing him misfortune commensurate with theirs, pay a visit to a witch. And that's where things take a sudden twist in the lives of the Willows.
At first, it is the home employee in charge of the control room, Julio, who gets into an accident that leaves him dead in the pool. Then, it is a strange visitor, who always brings death along. Being too careful is not enough for the Willows, especially as simple accidents begin to grow lethal.
At the end of the day, Owen's devotion to upholding family legacy may not be enough to keep this new horror at bay.
