Plot

During the final days at the Yankee Pedlar Inn, two employees determined to reveal the hotel's haunted past begin to experience disturbing events as old guests check in for a stay.

Sinekatalog’s take

A slow-burning ghost story set in a creaky, half-empty hotel during its last days. It trades jump scares for atmosphere, small-hours boredom and gentle slacker humour, so the dread arrives late but lands. Patient horror fans who like old-fashioned haunting over gore will be rewarded.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
