Dead & Deader

In the small, fog-shrouded town of Hollow Creek, a peculiar epidemic breaks out, leaving the residents disoriented and experiencing strange hallucinations. The local sheriff, Lucy Walker, played by the resilient Emma Harris, finds herself at the center of chaos after a series of bizarre events begin to unfold. People are mysteriously falling ill and appearing lifeless, only to awaken with vivid memories of the deceased. But these “living corpses” are not just figments of imagination; they harbor dark secrets and untold stories.

Desperate for answers, Lucy teams up with an eccentric local historian and amateur paranormal expert, Max Donovan, a charming but socially awkward figure portrayed by Ryan Bennett. Together, they sift through the town’s lore and uncover a connection to an unsolved mystery involving an ancient family curse, buried deep within the town’s blood-soaked history. As they dig deeper, the line between the living and the dead begins to blur, revealing that the past is not as buried as everyone believed.

As strange occurrences escalate, Lucy and Max are confronted by a formidable antagonist: a shadowy figure known only as The Harbinger, who seems to be orchestrating the chaos and feeding off the fear of the townsfolk. Unbeknownst to them, the townspeople are drawn into a captivating dance between life and death, experiencing moments of clarity and wisdom from those they’ve lost—all while their own sanity hangs in the balance.

Themes of grief, unfinished business, and the quest for redemption intertwine as Lucy finds herself grappling with her own traumatic past and the death of her younger sister. The emotional stakes rise when Lucy discovers that not all the “dead” wish to return; some harbor resentment and anger, complicating their already fragile grasp on reality.

As the situation spirals out of control, Lucy and Max must race against time to unravel the mystery before Hollow Creek succumbs entirely to the dead. “Dead & Deader” is an exhilarating blend of supernatural mystery and profound humanity, inviting viewers to explore the depths of their own fears while revealing the poignant truths about life, death, and what lies in between.
