Trapped in an abandoned house, a group of seekers must confront the ghosts of their pasts—memories that linger like shadows in the walls. As the characters face their darkest moments, hope flickers on the horizon, lighting the path towards redemption. Will they break free from the weight of their past, or remain trapped in its grip forever? A powerful and deeply moving ghost story that delves into the heart of human resilience and the journey towards healing.
Run time: approximately 45 minutes
