When guilt becomes a gateway to hell, redemption demands the ultimate sacrifice.
One year ago, JT Rutherford and Steven Braun committed the unthinkable. Driven by arrogance and occult obsession, these Ivy League students murdered their friend David in a failed attempt to summon a demon for wealth and power. Now, haunted by David's vengeful spirit and consumed by guilt, they return to the decadent Gothic mansion in New Orleans where their nightmare began.
Twelve strangers receive mysterious invitations to an anniversary dinner party at the abandoned estate. Each guest harbors their own dark connection to the mansion's blood-soaked history. As midnight approaches and supernatural forces awaken, they discover they are trapped in an ancient ritual-pawns in a cosmic game where their souls are the prize.
But the antique chest at the mansion's heart holds more than David's remains.Carved with screaming faces that transform to match each guest, it pulses with otherworldly power. When the clock strikes twelve and the chest opens by itself, the terrifying truth is revealed: they haven't been brought here to die.
They've been brought here to bind a demon.
