Every few years, for nearly six decades, another house on this street has been the scene of a tragedy.

Nate and his family move to a new town as they try to escape the curse once and for all. But when he is drawn into his new friends' urban legends club, new ghost stories merge with old ones until there is nowhere left to go.
