What initially seems like the best night for Bianca—sneaking away from her overbearing mom and having her first kiss with a guy she met at a bar—turns horrifyingly wrong when she ventures to her older sister’s abandoned hangout and discovers Maria’s secret meat diet.

Born and raised in Romania, Johanna Carter has always been a horror fan since she watched "Evil Dead" for the first time when she was six. Writing became her passion, her first story being about a puppy detective helping the world by solving mysteries.
A passionate artist in her early twenties, Johanna is now earning her BFA in Creative Writing while working on a novel, filming movie commentaries and essays on her YouTube channel, and writing/filming engaging stories for cinema and TV. Her first directorial debut was with her proof-of-concept short film "Photo of Us," a family drama with a twist.
Ever since that night of horror revelation, Johanna has dreamt of creating narratives that could someday, somehow, somewhere, become a story revelation to somebody else. Everything she's doing is in the name of actively pursuing that dream.
Stories are everything, and I want to tell mine in such a viscerally truthful way that once you engage with them, they have eternally marked you. Nothing is off-limits, and everything is possible.
