After discovering her husband's infidelity, a heartbroken pregnant woman utters a wish to no longer be pregnant. That night, an ancient entity answers her plea, violently granting her wish and leaving her dying in her husband's arms. Desperate to save her, her husband makes one final wish for her return, only to be presented with a burlap sack containing something far more horrifying than he ever imagined.
