Synopsis:
A group of friends, eager to celebrate Halloween, decide to attend a party hosted by friends.
As the night wears on, the party takes a sinister turn. Christine, one of the friends, discovers a gruesome scene: her best friend, Shelley, has been brutally murdered and left for dead in the bathroom. Panic ensues as she stumbles out of the bathroom and out of the house, desperate to escape the horrifying sight.
As Christine walks home, a sense of dread washes over her. She feels as though she is being watched, her every step followed. Suddenly, a figure emerges from the shadows. To her horror, it is an exact replica of herself, a chilling doppelganger. The figure’s face is contorted into a grotesque grimace, and its eyes burn with an unnatural intensity. Christine’s heart pounds in her chest as she realizes she is not alone in the darkness, and that the terror of the night has only just begun.
Character Breakdowns:
FEMALE LEAD – Christine is a quiet, bookish individual who finds joy in the simple pleasures of life, especially Halloween. While her friends are often drawn to the party scene, Christine prefers the thrill of the hunt for the perfect costume or the satisfaction of carving intricate jack-o’-lanterns. Her intelligence and analytical mind make her a valuable asset in any trivia game or puzzle-solving challenge. Despite her introverted nature, Christine has a deep appreciation for the spooky and mysterious, and she’s always eager to share her knowledge of Halloween history and folklore.
FEMALE SUPPORTING ROLE – Shelley Is the best friend and confidante of the film’s lead actress, but she’s also a bit of a wild card. Always seeking the next adventure or thrill, Shelley often finds herself in precarious situations. Her impulsive nature and love for the spotlight can sometimes lead her down a less-than-ideal path, causing trouble for both herself and her friend. Despite her flaws, Shelley’s loyalty and infectious energy make her a complex and compelling character.
