When 22-year-old Megan Harper, her 19-year-old brother Josh, and their mother relocate to the quiet mountain town of Bryson City, North Carolina, they hope for a fresh start. But the idyllic backdrop of the Great Smoky Mountains harbors a sinister secret.
During a trip to the local tourist spot, the "Road to Nowhere," Megan and Josh encounter a malevolent spirit; a dark presence that refuses to let them go. Uneasy and desperate, the siblings confide in their mother, only to unravel a chilling family legacy. Over a century ago, their ancestors, Catherine and Adam Harper, bound this entity through a perilous blood ritual. But the bond forged in blood ties Megan and Josh to the vengeful spirit, awakening it from its long slumber.
Now hunted by a specter of their ancestors' making, the Harper family must confront the sinister past to unearth a way to break the curse. As the lines between the living and the dead blur, Megan must uncover the truth behind Catherine and Adam's desperate act before history repeats itself; and claims her and her brother, forever.
