The writer-director of a new play, an adaptation of the novel which inspired the term Masochism, is on the telephone lamenting the inadequacies of all the actresses who showed up that day to audition for the lead character. Suddenly, at the last minute, a new actress bursts in, the exemplar of every fault he has decried: needy, crude, compliant, desperate. Yet over the next 90 minutes, the balance of power shifts as the actress establishes total dominance over the director, exactly as in the novel.

新剧《灵界》（The Fades）被制片人描述为「相当长一段时期内人们在电视上见过的最吓人的电视剧集」。该剧描述一个17岁少年能够看见死者的精灵，一种被称为「逝者」的东西。这种东西不是鬼魂，不是吸血鬼和狼人，也不是民间传说中任何一种怪物，而是一种全新的东西。活人见不到他们，听不到他们，闻不到他们，也感觉不到他们的存在。但是如今生与死的界限开始模糊，「逝者」突破束缚进入了活人的世界。一个叫Paul的少年能够用肉眼看到「逝者」，他和他的朋友Mac将承担起驱除邪灵、保护人类的重任。一开始，Paul总是被「世界末日」的噩梦惊醒，他的心理医生对此无能为力。后来Paul亲眼见到自己身边被「逝者」环绕，才明白发生了什么事。与此同时，女主角Sarah能够预见未来，并因此遭到「逝者」的袭击。当Sarah神秘消失后，她的前夫Mark开始四处寻找她。
