A TV-era supernatural slasher built on paranoia and disbelief, where a woman's brush with a satanic cult and killer is undermined by the impossibility of proving what she witnessed.

In this made-for-cable television horror thriller, a travel writer visits a historic hotel to write a story about it and inadvertently finds herself on the 13th floor where she witnesses a Satanic rite and tangles with an axe-wielding killer. She escapes, but no one believes her story because the hotel has no 13th floor.
