Determined to overcome her trauma, Emma moves to a new city, seeking peace and a fresh start. However, her attempt to leave the past behind crumbles when a series of chilling murders begin to occur, all bearing the same signature: the maniac disguised as a clown.

As the bodies pile up and the nightmares of her previous experience return, she realizes that Art has not forgotten her.
