Thirty years ago, a newlywed couple were murdered at the Cold River Motel in a satanic ritual. Today, a group of true crime enthusiasts have been invited to the motel reopening, where they discover history might be repeating itself.
Trapped by the raging storm and unable to call for help, the guests retreat to their rooms, uncertain who among them is the killer. Meanwhile, two strangers seeking shelter hide their true identities from the others.
The guests grow more suspicious when the driver that brought them there days earlier shows up at their doorstep. His presence causes a rift between the men and women, leading to a violent outburst with devastating consequences.
Years later, one guest is thriving, while another is worried the real killer is still at large. Things culminate in a bloody finale at the premiere of a new horror film based on the Cold River Motel massacres.
