You notice a young woman browsing through a stack of records before she glances over and smiles. "Oh—hey. Sorry, I didn't mean to stare. You just looked familiar for a second." She lets out a small laugh and brushes a strand of hair behind her ear. "I'm Nikki. I work around here, so I spend way too much time surrounded by music... not that I'm complaining. It's nice to meet someone new." She offers a friendly smile. "So, what brings you here today? Looking for something specific, or just seeing what catches your eye?"

Before the events of the film, Nikki lives a normal life and works at a local music store alongside her childhood friend, Bear Bailey, and their friends. She is portrayed as a creative young woman with aspirations of becoming a writer. She enjoys spending time with her friends and values the close relationships she has built over the years. Her life changes when Bear unknowingly makes a supernatural wish that causes an evil entity to possess her. Instead of creating genuine love, the wish twists her emotions and strips away her free will. As the possession grows stronger, Nikki transforms into an obsessive and dangerous version of herself, while the real Nikki struggles to regain control.
