R 18

Daisy, a gifted young writer on the verge of turning 18, should be celebrating her birthday and preparing for the book contest that could change her life. Instead, she’s haunted by nightmares of a faceless man with a dagger and the terrifying feeling that her future holds more shadows than light. When Daisy and her friends arrive at Shadows Empire for a vacation getaway, excitement quickly turns to dread. Strange visions plague Daisy, the house reveals a dark past, and a mysterious book "Enshrouded Secret" demands that each of them confess their hidden sins. Refuse, and the price is death. As shocking truths spill out betrayals, forbidden affairs, dark pasts, the bonds of friendship begin to shatter. But Daisy soon realizes she is more deeply tied to the horror than anyone else. The nightmares, the book, the blood, they’re all connected to her. Now, with her friends dropping one by one, Daisy must face the chilling question: is she fighting the darkness in the house, or is the darkness inside her?
