Synopsis/Details
On a pumpkin farm nestled into the naturally eerie Berkshire Hills, a haunted legacy is hidden. Ghostly secrets yearn to be disclosed and when a young neighbor of a pumpkin farm once ravaged by ghostly horror, a popular high school cheerleader, grills one of the owners of the farm about the veiled mystery, her curiosity takes over. Gathering one night as the frost appears on the pumpkins, she and four cheerleaders consume alcohol and satiate their supernatural questions with an impromptu seance. The seance unwittingly releases the ghost of a horror story writer from the 18th century. The ghost angrily rises from the grave, furious with the damnation of walking among the living. Possessing the body of one of the owners of the pumpkin farm, the ghost kills the cheerleaders one by one. No one in the ghost's path is safe and now, the cheerleader must discover her natural psychic abilities and unconjure what she has done... if she can decode the mystery in time.
