Cold Prey III

In the stark, snow‑blanketed peaks of Norway’s Jotunheimen range, an aging stone hotel stands half‑collapsed against the wind, its windows dark and its corridors filled with the echo of forgotten footsteps. The remote setting feels both beautiful and oppressive, a landscape where silence stretches for miles and the cold seems to seep into the very bones of anyone who dares approach. The abandoned Stehøe Mountain Hotel, long since left to its own decay, looms as a silent sentinel over the pine‑scented woods, hinting at stories that have never been spoken aloud.

Guiding a hopeful band of young explorers through this frozen wilderness is the seasoned local sheriff, Einar, whose knowledge of the terrain is matched only by his understated sense of duty. Among the group are Siri, a fearless spirit with a taste for adventure; Knut, whose quiet determination balances the team’s dynamics; Magne, ever‑curious about the hidden histories of the places they visit; Hedda, whose cautious optimism keeps the group grounded; Anders, whose steady humor masks a deeper intensity; and Simen, the quiet observer with a keen eye for detail. Together they represent a mix of youthful energy and seasoned caution, each bringing their own motivations for tackling the mysteries that lie within the hotel’s crumbling walls.

The film unfolds as a slow‑burning descent into isolation, where the pristine white landscape belies an undercurrent of unease. As the group steps through dust‑laden corridors and explores forgotten rooms, the atmosphere shifts from awe‑inspired wonder to a palpable tension, teasing the audience with the notion that the past never truly rests. The tone is a chilling blend of Nordic folklore and modern suspense, inviting viewers to feel both the lure of the unknown and the creeping dread that something unseen may be waiting in the shadows. This setup promises a tense, atmospheric journey that hinges on the characters’ relationships and the haunting allure of a place left to the mercy of time and winter.
