It stars Teeradon Supapunpinyo as a spirit who gets to inhabit the body of Min, a teenager who recently committed suicide, and bring him back to life.

Confused, he attempts to escape, but is confronted by several people who reveal themselves to be "the Guardian", and tell him that he is a spirit who has been given a second chance at life in the body of Min, a teenager who recently committed suicide.

He meets his brother Menn, who does little to conceal his dislike of Min, and his father, who had quit his job as a university lecturer to pursue a multi-level marketing career selling supplements.

Seeing things in a new light, he tries to make the best of his remaining days, addressing past conflicts and tying up loose ends.

The project was first helmed by GDH director and executive Yongyoot Thongkongtoon, but after a year of development, was handed over to Parkpoom Wongpoom in 2016.

Parkpoom had previously co-directed the 2004 hit horror film Shutter and some other anthologies, but Homestay was his first solo feature.

[2] Teeradon was cast in the lead role, while Cherprang, who is also "captain" of the girl idol group BNK48, made her acting debut in the film.

[4] The film involves several shots featuring extensive computer-generated visual effects, which Parkpoom expressed difficulty working with.

[15] At the 27th Bangkok Critics Assembly Awards, the film received ten nominations and won in two categories: Best Supporting Actress (Suquan) and Best Production Design.
