- After raising an unnervingly talented spider in secret, 12-year-old Charlotte must face the facts about her pet-and fight for her family's survival-when the once-charming creature rapidly transforms into a giant, flesh-eating monster.
- One cold, stormy night in New York City, a mysterious object falls from the sky and smashes through the window of a rundown apartment building. It is an egg, and from this egg emerges a strange little spider... The creature is discovered by Charlotte, a rebellious 12-year-old girl obsessed with comic books. Despite her stepfather Ethan's best efforts to connect with her through their comic book co-creation Fang Girl, Charlotte feels isolated. Her mother and Ethan are distracted by their new baby and are struggling to cope, leaving Charlotte to bond with the spider. Keeping it as a secret pet, she names it Sting. As Charlotte's fascination with Sting increases, so does its size. Growing at a monstrous rate, Sting's appetite for blood becomes insatiable. Neighbours' pets start to go missing, and then the neighbours themselves. Soon Charlotte's family and the eccentric characters of the building realise that they are all trapped, hunted by a ravenous supersized arachnid with a taste for human flesh - and Charlotte is the only one who knows how to stop it.

- The story begins with Charlotte, a rebellious 12-year-old girl living in a dilapidated apartment building with her overworked father, Ethan. Charlotte is often left to her own devices and stumbles upon a tiny spider encased in a strange, glowing object that crash-lands nearby. Intrigued, she decides to keep the spider as a pet, naming it "Sting."
As Charlotte cares for Sting, the spider begins to grow at an alarming rate. She initially keeps its size a secret, but as it becomes more difficult to hide, her father and neighbors start to notice strange occurrences around the building. The spider's growing size and insatiable appetite soon lead to the disappearance of several residents.
Charlotte's relationship with her father is strained, but they are forced to come together to deal with the monstrous creature. Ethan, initially skeptical, becomes increasingly concerned as more neighbors vanish, and they find evidence pointing to the spider's involvement.
The tension escalates when Sting, now a gigantic spider, traps several residents in the building using elaborate webs. Charlotte, Ethan, and a small group of survivors, including Heather, a sympathetic neighbor, and Frank, a beleaguered side character, devise a plan to escape the building and destroy the creature. Their plan involves luring Sting into a trap using a combination of fire and explosives.
As they attempt to execute their plan, they face numerous obstacles, including the spider's intelligence and adaptability. During a dramatic showdown in the building's basement, Sting attacks the group, resulting in a chaotic and suspenseful battle. Ethan shows unexpected bravery, fighting to protect his daughter and the other survivors.
In the film's climax, Charlotte manages to lure Sting into a trap with the help of the surviving neighbors. Using a makeshift explosive device, they finally destroy the monstrous spider, but not without sustaining significant losses. The building is heavily damaged, and the survivors are left to contemplate the horrors they witnessed.
The film concludes with Charlotte and Ethan, their relationship mended through the ordeal, leaving the ruins of their apartment building. As they walk away, the final shot hints at the possibility of other similar creatures, leaving the door open for potential sequels.
