The Houses October Built

The film opens with a harrowing scene where Brandy's battered body is seen being transported in a truck. The atmosphere is filled with echoes of distant screams and maniacal laughter, setting a chilling tone for the events to come.

Flash back to the days before All Hallows' Eve, where we meet Brandy, her boyfriend Zack, cameraman Jeff, and their friends Bobby and Mikey. They are excitedly embarking on a journey to explore America's most infamous haunted attractions to document their experiences.

The group is initially thrilled as they explore various haunted houses, but their true aim is to uncover the elusive Blue Skeleton, a mythical figure that moves locations each year. They delve into the dark complexities of the actors who haunt these attractions.

As they continue their journey, Zack becomes increasingly disenchanted with the mundane scares presented at the attractions. His friends, however, begin to sense that something more sinister is lurking beneath the surface of these events.

During their exploration, the group learns about the disturbing practices within the haunted attractions, including the usage of disturbed individuals for shock value and actual corpses as props. They realize that their safety is being compromised.

Their adventure takes a menacing turn when they are stalked by a clown and a young actress who keep reappearing. Jeff encounters a sinister figure in a bunny suit wielding an axe, leading to further distress among the friends.

When they learn that the Blue Skeleton has reappeared in Louisiana, tensions rise as they prepare for what lies ahead. Later, an intruder breaks into their van, documenting their vulnerable moments on camera, adding to the group's growing anxiety.

Bobby uploads footage of the break-in, yet Zack insists on keeping the incident secret to maintain group morale. They soon discover a cow heart in their refrigerator, heightening Brandy and Bobby's anxieties about their safety.

At a local bar, Brandy confronts male actors filming a scene without consent, leading to a tense altercation. After a narrow escape, they reclaim their camera, but return to their RV to find it besieged by actors, plunging them into darkness.

The next day, the group attends a lively Halloween festival. Amid the festivities, Jeff unintentionally gets separated and is cornered by a trio of costumed attackers, raising the stakes as his friends frantically search for him.

As their search for Jeff continues, the friends receive an enigmatic call regarding the Blue Skeleton and are led to a location where they must choose between abandoning their RV or risking Jeff's life. Tensions escalate dramatically among the group.

Reluctantly, Zack decides to comply with the threats posed by their assailants, leading to the remaining group members being hooded and taken away. They struggle to comprehend their grim fate as they are driven towards an unknown destination.

Brandy is abruptly taken to an isolated location where she is handed a camera and instructed to document her experience. Each member is confined to separate areas, facing increasingly terrifying scenarios as they become victims of the Blue Skeleton's minions.

In his dark confines, Zack experiences brutal beatings, reflecting the horror that has engulfed their group. Meanwhile, others face their own individualized torture, being entombed alive in coffins by masked actors, signifying their descent into true terror.
