The Hollow Veil is a neo-gothic horror film set in the desolate, long-abandoned town of Elden Hollow, hidden deep in the Pennsylvania woods. Once wiped out by a supposed "plague" in 1782, the town is chosen centuries later as the setting for a live-streamed reality show. Forty-six participants—college students, influencers, and crew—arrive at the decaying Blackmoor Estate, lured by the promise of fame and a $50,000 reward. But when an ancient bell tolls and one contestant is found gruesomely murdered, the line between legend and reality dissolves. As panic escalates, the group uncovers the dark legacy of Dr. Vale, a colonial-era physician who believed in curing illness through bloodletting, lobotomies, and torture. Now, a masked killer stalks the survivors, reenacting Vale’s twisted “treatments.” Is it a ghost, a madman, or something even worse—an inherited madness fed by forgotten rituals? Trapped by fog, time, and terror, the survivors must confront history itself before they too become part of the Hollow’s story.
