A fading Hollywood starlet discovers that the glamorous hills of Los Angeles conceal a predatory, supernatural history that demands a blood sacrifice. When Todd Pickett, a matinee idol seeking to reinvent himself, retreats to a secluded canyon estate, he finds himself ensnared by the malevolent spirits of a forgotten cinematic era. The narrative, told through a shifting third-person perspective, tracks his descent as the physical boundaries of his home dissolve into a surreal, nightmarish landscape. He must confront the entities that thrive on the vanity and desperation of the industry before he is permanently absorbed into their spectral ranks.

This novel is characterized by its lush, grotesque prose and its focus on the intersection of fame and the supernatural. The narrative structure suggests a deliberate subversion of the traditional ghost story, replacing haunted houses with the haunted geography of the Hollywood Hills. The work leans heavily into the author's signature style of blending high-concept fantasy with visceral, bodily horror. It presents a bleak, cynical view of the entertainment industry, framing the pursuit of stardom as a ritualistic surrender to forces far older and more dangerous than the studio system.
