Chicken House is a subversive comedy with a quirky sense of humor, giving the spotlight to three aspiring actresses who live together in Los Angeles. Beth (Jessi Kyle) is highly religious and decorates her room with biblical memorabilia. The affable and ungainly Charlie (Ashley Mandanas) identifies as a lesbian but struggles to embrace who she is. April (Kassie Gann) is high-spirited and reserves most of her time recording voice-over auditions.

Focused on their careers, the roommates never even tried getting to know each other. Communicating through passive-aggressive comments and behaviors, they merely try to follow the rules and not stir any conflict. Then, the incredibly eccentric Cat (Cate Jones) shows up on their doorstep one day. While Beth, Charlie, and April are wary of Cat’s cool, calm demeanor, she becomes their fourth roommate. Not long after moving in, Cat is convinced that an evil entity has infiltrated one of the rooms.
