On a stormy night, in a deep, dark corner of a swamp, a fierce bolt of lightning strikes a distracted mosquito, leaving it with a strange static charge. Dizzy from the shock, the mosquito buzzes into a dilapidated, deserted shack, and bites a voodoo doll stuck with pins, causing the doll to come to life.
