Witchery

On a storm‑swept island off the coast of Massachusetts, a crumbling hotel looms like a relic of forgotten glamour. The locals whisper about a centuries‑old witch who once walked the halls in black, a presence that has turned the building into a magnet for rumors and uneasy curiosity. The weather presses in, the sea roars, and the abandoned corridors seem to pulse with an atmosphere that is equal parts alluring and foreboding, setting a tone that feels simultaneously gothic and modern.

Into this unsettled landscape arrive Leslie, a quiet, inquisitive student, and Gary, her sharp‑eyed photographer boyfriend. Their partnership is built on a blend of scholarly curiosity and visual storytelling, and they come to the island intent on documenting the hotel’s haunted reputation. While Leslie seeks to understand the history that clings to the walls, Gary is drawn to capture the stark beauty of decay, each feeding the other’s fascination with the unknown.

Their investigation quickly intertwines with the ambitions of a family who see the isolated property as a potential private retreat. Rose Brooks, the family matriarch, leads a cadre that includes her husband Freddie, their son Tommy, and her pregnant stepdaughter Jane. Alongside them are Linda Sullivan, an eager architect tasked with assessing renovations, and Jerry Giordano, a real‑estate broker hoping to seal a deal. The convergence of these disparate motives creates a charged dynamic, where scholarly intrigue meets commercial greed, and personal secrets ripple beneath the surface.

As night deepens, the island’s mood tightens, hinting that the very walls may respond to the hidden desires and fears of those within them. The promise of the witch’s lingering influence hangs like a soft, seductive whisper, suggesting that the line between research and obsession may blur, and that some mysteries are as intoxicating as they are dangerous.
