Synopsis/Details
Emma Porter is a quiet, overworked data analyst stuck in a dead-end corporate job. When a charming stranger invites her to a lavish estate for what seems like a romantic escape, Emma quickly discovers she’s been selected as the latest “sacrifice” in a deadly, generations-old ritual. Trapped inside a massive hedge maze, she must outsmart an armored killer known as the Minotaur while navigating brutal traps, psychological warfare, and the betrayal of those she trusted most.
Teaming up with Ivy, a disgraced survivalist who’s also been thrown into the game, Emma begins to unlock the twisted mythology behind the McNeil family's blood-soaked legacy. But survival is only the beginning. As the maze takes its toll and the true cost of the ritual becomes clear, Emma must confront her trauma, reclaim her power, and decide just how far she’s willing to go to end the cycle of violence once and for all.
Minotaur is a visceral, female-driven horror-thriller about rage, survival, and burning down the systems built to destroy us.
