"Once you check in, you can never check out." -K.R. Alexander; Author of Vacancy and The Collector.
The inn isn't just abandoned... it's hungry.
When a group of friends decided to visit the inn for the night, they find themselves powerfully drawn to it, a deserted inn not so far yet on the edge of the city.
It's a well-known dare in Ho Chi Minh City for theorists and kids to try and stay a night in this inn without being scared away. When they heard about it, they were eagerly convinced to join and do the challenge. How hard can it be stay up all night in a deserted old inn?
Only... the inn isn't abandoned. There is however one person staying there- supposedly the owner, but he's been dead for a while. And once you walk into the inn, he'll do everything possible to stop you from checking out.
Do you dare try to stay the night, or live the same fate as those who tried before.
