Despite the reassurances of his mother (Lucy Lawless) that the boogeyman is not real, he is never the same afterward. Years later, Tim (Barry Watson) manages to create a normal life for himself -- though he lives without closets and keeps his mattress on the floor. But when he learns of his mother's death, Tim must return home to face his childhood trauma.
