One year after a cruel prank ends in tragedy, eight friends reunite at a remote mountain lodge to honor the memory of two sisters who vanished in the freezing wilderness. What begins as an uneasy reunion quickly spirals into terror when strange figures stalk the snow-covered woods and a masked predator begins tormenting the group, turning their guilt, secrets, and fractured relationships into weapons. As paranoia grows, the friends realize the mountain isn’t just isolating them—it’s testing them. When the truth behind the sisters’ disappearance is uncovered, the horror takes a darker turn. Beneath the mountain lives something ancient and starving—Wendigos, creatures born from desperation and cannibalism, bound to the land and awakened by tragedy. Forced to survive until sunrise, each decision carries lethal consequences. Trust shatters. Sacrifices are made. And survival becomes less about strength—and more about who they choose to save. When dawn finally breaks, only the choices made in the dark will determine who lives… and who never leaves the mountain.
