33-year-old Sean Farmer is on his way to meet his friend Scott Johnston at a campsite deep in the backwoods of Virginia. They plan to fish along remote Dismal Creek, unaware that the area has a dark past.

Decades later, as Sean starts to set up camp near the same spot, a mysterious stranger appears. Is the terrible history of Dismal Creek doomed to repeat itself?
