Two tragedies, a few months apart and multiple states away from each other, leaves four people dead with one fighting for their life. As a result, this uproots the lives of teenagers Ledger Elliot and Iris Brubaker, who know nothing of each other. Fifteen years later, their paths cross when Iris moves to the small Maine island Ledger has lived on his whole life. After her grandmother's death, Iris inherited a lodge on the island and intends to reopen it as a hotel.



Unbeknownst to Ledger and Iris, their lives are about to collide, and their dark pasts will come to haunt them with the help of the history and possession of the lodge. Through an unexplainable draw they are cast together and find themselves fighting for their lives, and the protection of the island residents, against unseen foes. Demonic forces which followed them from their pasts, are determined to take over the lodge and reopen a portal to hell. Through this battle Ledger and Iris discover they were sent to stop one another, yet through their connection unleash a power they'd never known existed.
