A Very Ghostly Murder

Synopsis

A group of unrelated adults are notified that they have won a competition to spend a night at the famously haunted Mermaid Hotel in Rye, Sussex, UK. They have not, however entered a competition. Soon after they arrive there is a murder and they find that they are locked in. The murders then begin in earnest as one by one they are killed with no visible sign of injury? As the murders continue the tension rises. Is the murderer a demon or something else supernatural or is it one of them. There is evil in the air and it looks like no-one will survive until the morning. Brad is the ghost hunter employed to conduct the ghost hunt but Brad is not quite as brave as he first appears!
