A dreamlike, gothic mystery where a guilt-haunted writer navigates a blurred boundary between supernatural horror and psychological unraveling, guided by spectral visions.

A washed-up horror novelist arrives in a sleepy town on a book tour, only to stumble into a string of eerie murders. Haunted by dreams of a ghostly girl named V and guided by the spirit of Edgar Allan Poe, he’s drawn into a nightmarish world where fiction and reality blur—and the story he’s chasing leads back to his own buried guilt.
