The story
Jenny and Sam just moved into their dream home, but their blissful newlywed phase takes a chilling turn. Jenny becomes convinced their new place is haunted by a presence that manifests every night at 2:22 am. Her husband Sam, a staunch skeptic, dismisses her concerns. To fuel the fire, tensions rise when they host an old friend and her partner, reigniting the debate between believer and doubter. As the clock inches closer to the witching hour of 2:22 am, unexplained events escalate, leaving the audience questioning reality itself. Will Jenny uncover the truth about the haunting, or will her sanity crumble under the pressure?
