The
Deep South, 1847. A lowly gravedigger, Fredrick (Christian
S. Anderson), struggles to provide for his family. At the
urging of his wife Elizabeth (Alison Gallaher), Fredrick steals
a recently buried corpse to sell to the local medical college
for anatomy study. Setting off in his horse-drawn wagon on
a journey through the dark woods, Fredrick quickly realizes
that the dead man has other plans. Terrorized by supernatural
happenings, Fredrick is at the mercy of an angry ghost as
it reveals its chilling story. And the nightmare won't stop
until retribution is found.
