A grim slasher-horror film set in a converted funeral home where guests vanish and die, driven by paranoia, occult menace, and the dark history lurking in the cellar.

A young woman arrives at her grandmother's house, which used to be a funeral home, to help her turn the place into a bed-and-breakfast inn. After they open, however, guests begin disappearing or turning up dead.
