House of Dust

In the crumbling halls of a long‑abandoned asylum, a curious group of college students stumble upon a forgotten tragedy that still lingers in the dust. The building itself feels like a living museum of whispered madness, its decaying walls and empty treatment rooms radiating an uneasy mix of nostalgia and dread. The atmosphere is thick with the weight of stories unsaid, inviting anyone who dares to cross its threshold to confront echoes of a past that refuses to stay buried.

Among the explorers, Dylan carries the confidence of a storyteller, always eager to share the dark folklore that surrounds the forsaken institution. Gabby balances his boldness with a quiet skepticism, grounding the group while still being drawn to the mystery. Kolt, ever the provocateur, treats the venture as a thrilling challenge, his restless energy contrasting with Emma’s more introspective nature; she brings a personal history of mental health struggles that makes the asylum’s legacy hit close to home. As the night unfolds, the friends’ dynamics ripple under the unseen influence of the building, each personality tugged in different directions by the lingering presence of those who once suffered within its walls.

The campus guard Clyde serves as a reluctant sentinel, his warnings hinting at a deeper, unsettling history that the students are eager to ignore. Meanwhile, Allyson, Christine and Blythe linger at the edges of the group, their attitudes adding further tension to an already charged environment. The tone of the film hovers between gothic thriller and psychological haunt, weaving a tapestry of curiosity, fear, and the inevitable question: what happens when the past seeps back into the present, and how far will each character go to uncover—or escape—the truth hidden in the dust?
