In 1997, a small city named Crosswood was known for its mysterious disappearances and killings. Two young adults—Liz and Elaine—were adopted by an older woman named Mary, who lived in a big house in the middle of the woods. On a Thursday evening, Liz and Elaine watched a horror movie.
While watching it, they heard their mother’s screams coming from the woods and decided to investigate. Liz experienced something strange and passed out. She woke up in a hospital room without remembering what happened to her—but something had changed: She seemed to have become “ILL”.
Elaine and her friends try to free Liz from this situation, but there is more than just a mysterious illness—dark secrets lurk within this small city with a deeper meaning than anyone could have imagined.
