Valerie has moved from the city of Dublin to rural Ireland. Her real estate agent Finbar brings her into a gathering place for lonely souls, a pub where locals seek refuge from the bluster of the outside world by telling stories to break the silence of their isolation. When they discover Valerie has moved into a house considered “haunted,” the tales of the supernatural begin. Small mysteries evolve into eerie astonishments as the ghostly storytelling soars into liberating confessions of love, loss and loneliness. Half-hidden wounds are revealed throughout an evening of drink and testosterone-laden rivalry for Valerie’s attention, bringing these drinking buddies together in unexpected and deeply felt ways, and finally compelling Valerie to reveal a personal and chilling tale of her own.
