In December 1988, detective Adam Scott finds himself stranded at a desolate hotel—Hampton Hilton—when a snowstorm delays his train. The eerie, abandoned atmosphere of the hotel raises his suspicions, and when the reclusive receptionist reveals a chilling legend about a spirit known as the Shiner, Scott begins to investigate. According to the receptionist, anyone who gazes into the mirror of the hotel is doomed to die. But as Scott digs deeper into the mystery, he discovers that the Shiner’s curse may be connected to a long-buried secret, one that involves betrayal, lost souls, and an ancient curse tied to the hotel’s very foundations.
