When Andrew meets Beth at the Myles-Bend State Mental Hospital, he knows she has issues. She checked herself into the place because of her problems, but he can't help falling in love with her anyway. He's willing to put up with her constant mood swings and all the baggage she brings into the relationship. He'll help raise her kids, give her siblings a place to stay, and even look after her creepy grandfather. After all, he has the space in the huge house left to him by his parents.

Marriage has its hardships, Andrew knows that, but there seems to be something else wrong with Beth. A dark entity grows inside her and he can't help wondering if she might be possessed. Andrew can look past all the other drama in their new life, but the thing inside her that seems to want him dead - that's kind of a deal breaker.
