Storyline
| Plot Summary |
A group of friends reunite after a long time to plan a vacation. They finally decide to go on a hiking trip in Sweden (Eastern Europe). When one of them is injured, they have no choice but to cut through the forest in order to arrive at the lodge a couple of hours sooner. During a raging rainstorm, they spent the night in a spooky, abandoned house. What awaits them are things they never expect out of this supposedly bonding trip. Written by heyitsnuel |
