Bloodletters

Bloodletters tells the parallel stories of Grace, a middle-aged horror fiction writer, and the characters in one of her stories. Each of the five actors plays at least two characters: one in the play, one in the story within. While Grace lives a quiet and congenial suburban life with her retired husband Ray, the fictional world is roiling with sexuality and blood lust. When Graces pre-teen granddaughter reads one of the forbidden stories, the worlds seem to crash into each other, and both layers of the scenario meet in a darkly funny jaw-dropper of an ending.
