Okay, so whats the story?
Episode 1: Wrong Side of Sunday
Frank Graves, a stubborn truck driver, faces an unraveling home life as his wife Sally begs him to stay off the road. Ignoring her pleas, Frank climbs back into his rig for what seems like just another late-night haul—but nothing about this ride is ordinary.
As he drives through a stormy night, Frank picks up a stranded trucker, Bobby Austin. Out of nowhere, a monstrous, ghostly truck begins hunting them down, its engine roaring like thunder. The CB radio crackles to life with chilling voices, taunting Frank and forcing him to confront the demons lurking in his own life.
The ride turns into a white-knuckle drive for survival as Frank and Bobby desperately try to shake the sinister, otherworldly truck closing in on them. The nightmare ends in a brutal wreck, and Frank comes to—clutching a revolver, with Bobby dead beside him, a bullet in his head. With no way to explain the supernatural terror he’s witnessed, and now facing a murder charge, Frank’s grip on reality fractures, pulling him toward a dark reckoning for his soul.
Episode 2: 18 Wheeler
Frank Graves finds himself behind bars, accused of a murder he doesn’t remember committing. His world is unraveling—his wife Sally is torn between believing him and facing the terrifying truth. Meanwhile, Frank is haunted by flashbacks of the hellish truck that pursued him.
Locked in a cell with a cryptic fellow inmate, Frank spirals deeper into a psychological game where guilt, fate, and demonic forces intertwine. Adding to the chaos is a mysterious lawyer who seems to know far too much, manipulating Frank’s situation and hinting at darker, supernatural forces at play. As the lines between nightmare and reality blur, Frank must confront his darkest fears to survive—or risk losing everything, including his sanity.
Episode 3: Demon Truck
In the explosive finale, Frank Graves finds himself trapped in a kind of purgatory, with his soul torn between two forces: the courtroom, a symbolic representation of the devil’s grasp, and Peter, who miraculously pulls him in and out of this nightmare as they drive down an endless, empty highway. Frank’s every move is haunted by his past, with his wife Sally’s voice echoing in his mind and visions of his failures relentlessly pursuing him.
The courtroom scenes are intense and surreal, with Frank’s lawyer arguing for a mistrial in Bobby Austin’s murder case. Yet, the courtroom is more than a legal battle—it's a battleground for Frank’s soul. The devil, embodied by the slick, manipulative lawyer, pulls Frank deeper into guilt and despair, using his past mistakes and moral failings against him. Meanwhile, Peter, a mysterious figure who understands Frank’s inner struggles, leads him on a literal and metaphorical journey down the highway, urging him to confront his deepest guilt—his pride and neglect of his family. In a moment of defiance, Frank takes control, breaking free from their grip and taking the wheel for one last ride. Now, he faces his ultimate showdown: a rematch with the demon truck. Who will prevail?
