Ti West writes and directs this horror film set in a haunted hotel. The run-down Yankee Pedlar Inn is about to close owing to lack of business, and two slacker 20-something employees, Claire (Sara Paxton) and Luke (Pat Healy), have been left in charge for its final weekend. Eager to prove the rumours of hauntings and paranormal phenomena, the pair decided to set a camera rolling. Disturbing events soon begin to unfold as the hotel's less-than-desirable former residents check in for one last stay.
