Logline: A woman has a very special day.
Summary: In this one page horror short, MACY is preparing in a bridal suite in a white wedding gown. A hostess tells her how lovely she looks and, when she is ready, escorts her into a grand hall filled with beaming and happy people who watch her enter. Walking down the aisle to the raised altar she begins to tear up.
Once she reaches the altar, cracks begin to appear in the facade. And, once she is laid down on it and a HIGH PRIEST enters, it is clear that Macy is not here for her wedding but for a human sacrifice. Before being sacrificed the hostess reiterates to her how lovely she looks on her special day.
