The Unknown

A hundred years ago, five women vanished from New Avalon, leaving only their dresses hanging from the branches of an old oak. Struggling actress Marin Keane never expected her big break to come from a film about that unsolved Vermont mystery, let alone a week of period immersion on the very island where a commune of mediums disappeared in 1926. The lake is black and silent, the cabins have no modern comforts, and a diary left by young medium Daisy Rue claims a seance summoned something that took them one by one. Then a medical emergency strands Marin and her castmates with no way off, and people start disappearing again. To survive, Marin must decode Daisy's account before the island finishes what it started with her.
