It was directed by Adam Gierasch,[3] who also co-wrote the screenplay with Jace Anderson, and stars Edward Furlong, Monica Keena, Bobbi Sue Luther, Shannon Elizabeth, Diora Baird, and Michael Copon.

[4][5] In 1925, Evangeline Broussard hosts an evening gathering hoping to catch the eye of her crush Louis, who is into black magic.

In the present, Maddie and her friends Lily and Suzanne attend a party held by Angela Feld.

When Maddie goes to the bathroom, a hand grabs her through the mirror, with the others passing it off as an elaborate trick placed by Angela.

They enter the room and find six skeletons, whom Angela believes are the remains of the missing party guests of Evangeline Broussard.

While Maddie, Jason, and Colin leave to find another exit, Angela seduces Suzanne and turns her into a demon.

The survivors run upstairs and tend to Jason's injury and realize they are in the maid's room with the symbols she drew still on the walls, acting as a ward against the demons.

The trio attempt to re-draw the spells but are lured out of the room when the demons fake daylight in the windows.

In the end it's still a fun ride...and certainly worth a watch on an evening when you'd rather disengage the brain and sink a few drinks than deal with anything more cerebral".
