Our Thriller Synopsis

Holly, a school girl, arrives home from school to an empty house as per usual and heads straight to the kitchen for a bite to eat. But she realises this isn’t going to be a usual evening when some strange happenings begin to occur. 

She sits down to enjoy her cake and hears the sound of the garden gate closing outside. Finding it strange, but not getting too worried, she shuts the curtains and sits back down. She is suddenly disturbed again by the sound of the back door handle, as if somebody is trying to get into the house. 

She runs to the kitchen to check the door, and after recent threats from her psychopathic uncle she fears the worst and goes to grab the knife for protection. However, she finds that it is gone. She checks the kitchen for other knives to find they have all gone. In a panic, after hearing footsteps from within the house, she runs to the front door to lock it, but finds the keys missing. She decides to try and make a run for it to a neighbour’s house instead, but discovers somebody has locked the door and she cannot escape. 

Now terrified, she runs upstairs to hide, climbing under her bed and trying to keep quiet. But suddenly she hears a mobile phone ringing. Knowing this would give her position away, she panics and tries to grab her phone to turn it off. But she discovers it is not her phone ringing, and she knows the intruder must now be in the room. Praying he won’t find her, she lies as there silent, but suddenly and unexpectedly she is being dragged out from under the bed by her ankles.
