But as the evening darkens, old secrets are beginning to find their way to the light. And as the tension escalates between the four friends, it soon becomes clear that the danger they discovered lurking in the cabin is far from the only thing the only mystery that will be uncovered tonight. Nor the only thing to be afraid of...
