The premise

Mill Valley, Pennsylvania, Halloween night, 1968. After playing a joke on a school bully, Stella and her friends decide to sneak into a supposedly haunted house that once belonged to the powerful Bellows family, unleashing dark forces that they will be unable to control.

Horror Vault's take

Halloween 1968: a group of misfit teens in Mill Valley sneak into the long-abandoned Bellows estate and disturb something that should have stayed buried. A mysterious book begins writing new stories on its own — and the horrors scrawled across its pages have a way of coming terrifyingly true. Rooted in beloved childhood nightmare fuel, the film blends period atmosphere with creatures pulled straight from the darkest corners of imagination. The real question isn't whether the stories are real — it's whether anyone will survive long enough to finish reading them.
