Taphophobia (or taphephobia), (n): the fear of being buried alive

Join us for part one of our very first Dread story, where three longtime pals visit McCail Manor—a quiet, historic home turned Air B&B. But, as they quickly learn, the house might not be so quiet after all...

Featuring Grace, who tries to keep everyone smiling; Roy, who tries to keep everything sparkling; and Derek, who just wants to see a ghost. Really, really badly.
