A claustrophobic horror thriller that transforms a nostalgic amusement park into a paranoid nightmare where former friends must survive an unseen threat.

Park manager Fiona is tasked with taking care of some former friends who won an exclusive private sneak preview of Halloween at Liseberg – a whole night, all alone in the empty park. But cotton candy, lovely rides and lots of laughter soon turn into something completely different, as they realize they are not alone in the park. And the night of dreams quickly turns into a true nightmare.
