The crew of a horror web series travels to an abandoned asylum for a live broadcast. It soon encounters much more than expected as it moves deeper inside the nightmarish old building.

Just watched it, and it was better than I expected! They make the characters more-or-less likeable, which can be a feat in a "ghost hunter" group, and while it takes a little while to get going, once it does there was some good tension and decent scares. Won't keep me awake all night but it certainly entertained me for 90 minutes in October.

I love found footage and while I had a few quibbles (you're trespassing, you know if caught you will be arrested, but you're broadcasting a livestream saying where you are and hoping for as large an audience as possible?) overall it was really good! The scene in the room with the thing moving sideways, yikes.
