Plot edit
Loosely based on real incidents that unfolded during the mid-80s monsoon season amidst the uprising of naxalites in the eastern ghat range, a group of travellers courageously ventures through the dense forests, their objective to reach the safety of nearby rescue camps. However, as they navigate the treacherous terrain, they become ensnared in a web of eerie occurrences that defy explanation. The once serene surroundings begin to unravel, revealing a place that is far from what it initially appeared to be. Amidst their journey, they stumble upon an abandoned building, its dilapidated façade holding secrets of its own. Little do they know that within the crumbling walls, restless spirits lurk, haunting the desolate structure and heightening the group's fears as they struggle to distinguish between the physical dangers and the supernatural forces that surround them.
