Spending his last days drinking himself into oblivion, he waits for the end to come. But when he runs into his high school crush, the desire to leave this world becomes a fight to make it one more day.
Rachel is divorced and alone, spending her time in an empty house full of ghosts.
When Jack and Rachel meet, their lives focus on each other despite the escalating activity in the house. What lengths will people go to avoid being alone? Together, they confront a lost past and an uncertain future, holding on to the last threads of existence while facing an evil that cannot be explained.
