October, 1987, It's one week before Halloween on a cold Saturday evening in the small, sleepy town of Springdale, Ohio, a secret long buried is about to be discovered. German immigrant Bianka Steitz has been a loner most of her life, especially since her husbands passing. Now, old and all alone in her sprawling two-story house at the edge of Ember Street, she is about to have some unwanted visitors on this cold autumn night.
Little do the small band of teenagers realize upon entering the house, the secret revealed could cost them their very lives and the lives of those they love. Outcast fourteen-year-old Josh Spencer, the pretty and popular Madison Murphy along with their artistic Chinese friend, Pan Yun, are going to stumble upon a mystery that is as scandalous as it is terrifying.
Can this group of teenagers fend off the bullies from their school, untrusting parents dealing with their own demons, and a force that once unleashed, grows stronger and stronger by the minute? Or will Springdale and its residents all witness the true face of evil this holiday season? This Halloween, don't expect any treats.
