When four guilty men are acquitted of a horrific crime, a prophetic vision is set in motion and a group of magicians must trust in each other to prevent a powerful beast from being released, a demon hell bent on destroying what remains of the human race and reclaiming this planet as his once and for all. While on their way to an upcoming magic convention in Las Vegas, Shelly Branson (a talented escape artist from Denver), Charlie Parker (a young African-American street magician from New Orleans), and Jackson Winchell (a birthday party magician from Phoenix) freak out when they realize everyone has vanished from the face of the Earth save for the magicians of the land. They soon discover that their fates revolve around ensuring the released murderers stay alive and preserving the safety of a little girl named Maggie who holds the answers to all their questions inside a book written by her grandfather, the mysterious Mister Hollow. Mister Hollow has crossed paths with all of the magicians at pivotal moments in their lives and when they discover their connection, Mister Hollow's true identity and the motives behind his morbid curiosity are revealed. The Beast, which Harry Houdini imprisoned almost a hundred years ago, depends upon the murderers' deaths in order to gain its own freedom. World-renowned illusionist Davino Silverbrook finds himself seduced during a moment of weakness when the Beast promises him unparalleled magic in exchange for release. Will Davino give into the madness and commit murder to gain what he so desperately wants?
