A small provincial town in New England suddenly becomes a 'dead town.' Corpses lie in the streets, deadly flames rage over the houses. And this entire nightmare of a fiery apocalypse is the work of one person, a girl named Carrie, the pathetic, frightened daughter of an eccentric widow. For many years, Carrie's talent for telekinesis slumbered within her, only to awaken one day.

And then death came to the town...
