The Devil's Honeysuckle

Keiran Berry, a British queer artist, arrives in the haunted town of Elysian Hollow, Texas, to photograph decaying Southern architecture and uncover forgotten queer histories. He's drawn to the infamous Briar Manse, a plantation house rumoured to be cursed by a spirit known as the Honeysuckle Devil.

There, he meets Colton Ray McAllister, a reclusive rancher with a mysterious scar shaped like a honeysuckle vine. Colton's family has been haunted for generations by a curse born from a forbidden romance between his great-grandfather Elias and a man named Jude. Their love was buried-literally and spiritually-beneath The Manse, and the Devil feeds on queer desire and shame.

As Keiran and Colton fall in love, the curse awakens. Honeysuckle vines bloom out of season, shadows whisper, and the Devil begins to manifest. Their intimacy becomes both a weapon and a risk. They discover Elias's diary and learn that only love-bold, defiant, and true-can break the curse.

On Colton's birthday, September 9th, they perform a ritual at The Briar Manse. The Devil rises, grotesque and seductive, trying to tear them apart. But Colton chooses Keiran.
