Synopsis

On Halloween night a group of college students get trapped in a mysterious board game that brings their darkest secrets and fears to life, where they must play to escape…and win to survive.

A group of young adults have gathered together to celebrate Halloween, as well as remember the death of their friend Tony, who died a year ago that night. They decide to play the board game "Uncanny Annie", despite no one recalling how the game came to be in the house. The rules require the group to successfully complete the requirements on a deck of cards included in the box, after which they can select a letter to spell out Annie's name. Once the name is complete the game will be over, however they will only have one hour before Annie will come to end the game herself. The game doesn't strike any of them as overly strange until the tasks turn violent and bring out secrets that the group had been hiding from one another. One task requires that the group keep a card safe from a sinister entity, The Prankster, which they are unable to keep. As tasks grow more difficult many of the group die or are taken and during the course of the game the truth of Tony's death is revealed. The prior year Tony was trying to drive while very drunk and as a result, he was forced out of the car. Only part of the friend group was present, but none intervened, assuming that he would walk home in the pouring rain. It was implied that at some point he lost consciousness while face down in a puddle, drowning him. Ultimately only Wendy is left. To avoid dying she destroys the game box in the hopes of also destroying Annie. While it initially appears successful, Wendy ends up being taken by Annie for breaking the rules.
