TV movie Girl in the Box is based on the true story of Colleen Stan (Addison Timlin). The 20-year-old was hitchhiking from Oregon to California in May 1977 when she took a ride from a young married couple named Cameron and Janice Hooker. She was then abducted by the couple and held as a sex slave for seven years. She was kept in a coffin-like box under the couple’s bed. Whenever she was taken out of the box, she served as sex slave for Cameron who was addicted to S&M.
