Story Breakdown

The horror unfolds through carefully crafted atmosphere and escalating dread. A group of friends must confront their fears in a terrifying game. They must sit by the other players in a circle made of a hundred candles, take one of them and tell a horror story. As stories are told and candles blown out, strange events will start to happen. They will feel strange presences around them, lurking in the shadows. But they MUST NOT leave the game or else a terrible curse will fall upon them... Director Nicolás Onetti uses both psychological terror and visceral scares, building tension through what's unseen as much as what's shown. The pacing allows for breathing room between scares, making each frightening moment more effective.

Narrative Structure

• Opening Hook: An unsettling prologue sets the ominous tone, hinting at the terror to come while establishing the rules of this world.
• Character Arc: Character development is present but somewhat formulaic, following familiar patterns without adding fresh perspectives to the genre.
• Climax & Resolution: The final act escalates the terror to its peak, forcing characters to confront the source of horror directly.
