In a chilling nine-minute descent into terror, a group of friends finds their night irrevocably shattered by the arrival of Mercy. Directed and written by Riley Cosby, this compact horror tale introduces Mercy as a vengeful and ancient entity who awakens with a singular, bloody purpose. As portrayed by Laura Terry, Mercy is a queen of shadows and suffering, her presence turning a simple gathering into a desperate fight for survival. The ensemble, including Tora Mateo, Joseph Calhoun, and Melody Latshaw, must confront their deepest fears as they are hunted through a claustrophobic nightmare.

The friends, each with their own secrets and vulnerabilities, quickly learn that Mercy is no ordinary threat. She commands the darkness and the dead with a cruel authority, forcing the group to question everything they see and trust in one another. The central conflict becomes a brutal race against time and supernatural forces, where every corner hides a new terror and escape seems a distant hope. Crafting an atmosphere of relentless dread and visceral tension, the film delivers a potent burst of classic horror, exploring the primal fear of what lurks in the dark and the high price of attracting its attention.
