Our take
Abrasive novelist Ohm Bauman travels to a remote Irish hotel to scatter his parents' ashes, then gets trapped in witch legends, missing-person dread and visions tied to a childhood tragedy. Scares lean on atmosphere and jump shocks more than splatter, but the emotional weight is heavy: a child accidentally shoots a parent, a bartender vanishes, someone attempts suicide, and characters drink heavily, including mushroom-spiked milk. Rated M for disturbing content and language; a smart, slow-burn horror for older teens ready for trauma themes.
Uplifting themes
Fiona's kindness and a late redemption arc offer hope amid guilt and death Ohm starts cruel and self-destructive; Fiona shows more compassion
Story (may spoil tone)
When novelist Ohm Bauman retreats to a remote inn to scatter his parents' ashes, he is consumed by tales of a witch haunting the honeymoon suite. Disturbing visions and a shocking disappearance forces him to confront dark corners of his past.
