Wendy and her team are ghost hunters for an "All Day/All the Time" reality network. Wendy was sent to investigate a picture that allegedly kills anyone who looks at it. She returns home with information about the man in the picture dubbed "The Man With Hell's Eyes." His name was Jack and he died a painful and agonizing death due to the disease that ate him from the inside out. Her boyfriend, Dave, informs her that he has been diagnosed with stage two cancer and asks if she still wants to continue the investigation.



Three months later the cancer has progressed to stage four and Wendy has run out of options. Her boss, Hector, learns the location of the physical site of the web host. Against her wishes Hector tells her to take her team and Dave to the abandoned home and catch the ghost on tape so they can receive their payment of one million dollars, making him the C.E.O. of the network. Once her team gets there the ghost of Jack wastes no time playing mind games.



One of her crew members is badly injured and they want to leave, but Hector reminds Wendy of her debts. He sends a doctor there to look after the team, but he and Hector have evil intentions in mind. As Dave passes on to the afterlife he learns the truth about Jack and his real intentions. Dave has to try to change Jack's mind before he kills Wendy's entire team and walks with him to the afterlife.
