A group of friends receives a cryptic note: “I am sorry you know.” As they search for answers, they’re drawn back to a seemingly innocent Halloween prank from their childhood: burying a scarecrow. But what they uncover is far from harmless, revealing a disturbing truth that refuses to stay buried.
Years after a childhood Halloween prank, a tight-knit group of friends receives a chilling message that reads “I am sorry you know.” The note forces them to revisit the night they buried a scarecrow, a memory that begins to unravel as they realize their innocent stunt may have concealed something far darker. At the same time, two detectives pursue a missing person case that steadily draws closer to the friends’ past. As the investigations converge, the group is pushed to confront the truth about what they buried and the haunting consequences that followed them into adulthood.
