Description
Jacob Harris is returning home from a camping trip with his university friends, on New Years' Eve, when they become lost on a dark and deserted back road in the English countryside. A violent snowstorm suddenly descends and Jacob's car becomes stranded. He and his friends continue on foot to find help and shelter and stumble across the mysterious village of Blackriver which they cannot find anywhere on their map. The village is eerily abandoned, shrouded in darkness and devoid of any trace of modernity. They search for help and begin to unveil the dark tale of the Blackriver Highwayman and his brutal demise which haunts the village. The five friends soon realise that they have a tragic connection to the original villagers and struggle to understand the chilling mystery before they play out the roles cast for them which may seal their fate.
