This document is a storyboard that depicts two friends playing a video game together online through headsets. During their game, one character accidentally kills the other. The storyboard then follows one of the characters, Holly, alone at home where strange events start occurring that seem related to what happened in the video game. The storyboard ends with Holly being killed by the character she had killed online.
