Synopsis

Bailee Wood is an independent spirit who has risen up against racism, built an animal grooming business, married, and become a father. When his luck runs out and his business begins to fail, Bailee decides to travel one hundred miles to see a voodoo priest he hopes can lure customers and curse his competitors. But as he arrives for his meeting, Bailee has no idea that the priest is about to sell him a gay spirit with the power to change everything. After Bailee purchases a pink egg from Ironpants that represents the spirit that will assist him in rescuing his business from failure, he returns home where he must follow strict instructions that include building a house for the spirit, naming it, and secluding himself from his wife. But as Bailee begins having strange dreams, he slowly begins withdrawing from his wife and causes a chain of events that prompt the spirit to take matters into his own hands. Although his business eventually flourishes, Bailee's marriage does not, sending him down an intriguing path where surprises and adventure await. Bailee, The Animal Groomer reveals an African American man's battle with his internal demons as he struggles to save his livelihood with help from a determined spirit.
