In search of her brother, a girl named Carolyn finds herself in the underworld, whose gates open only once every 600 years on Halloween.
SYNOPSIS:
Carolyn and her younger brother Liam are struggling to cope with
the loss of their mother. When she left them earlier than
expected, all responsibility for the home, school, finances, and
upbringing fell entirely on the older sister, who, despite her
burden of responsibilities, even on Halloween, a holiday that once
brought their whole family together, bringing them countless
moments of happiness, she was unable to find the time to go trick-or-treating with her
brother in costumes when he
needed it most. However, Halloween is not just a holiday with
candy and joy, it is also the key to the passage to the secret
underground world, where the ghosts of people who have died on earth
wander. Once every 600 years, on this day, under a full moon,
a mortal can enter this forbidden
place, as Liam did, running away from his own sister to
his mother's grave, where an entrance appeared, and from
which a familiar, fatherly voice beckoned the boy
voice. Carolyn notices her brother is missing and goes to look for him,
knowing that of all the places in the world, he would first
go to the cemetery, where she sees him jumping into
the pit. The girl quickly rushes after him, pushing him away from
a mysterious figure that looks like their mother, tearing out one
of the pages of the book that the creature is holding in its hands.After
that, the floor collapses beneath them, and they are scattered
across different parts of the underworld. In this afterlife, Carolyn
has to hide from other ghosts, who are a mass of
hatred and aggression, while getting to know another
spirit, Alan, who, unlike the other ghosts, looks like a
young man, about the same age as the girl. He
explains the rules of existence in this place, helps
her escape from evil spirits, and often guides her along shortcuts
to her goal. Together, they overcome obstacles, terrifying
creatures, and other adversities on their way, searching for Liam, who
is also somewhere here, in the abyss of nightmares and horror, from which
Carolyn must leave this world before dawn so as not to become
part of it.
