However, their excitement turns to fear and confusion as they realize that something is not right. They start to experience strange occurrences, including weird noises, creepy shadows, and doors opening and closing on their own. When they discover a hidden room in the cabin, they realize that they have stumbled upon a dark secret that threatens to consume them all.

As the night progresses, tensions rise between the friends. They struggle to come to terms with the terrifying reality that they are facing, and each one reacts differently to the situation.
