It seems like the ideal escape—a weekend vacation in a quaint mountain lodge—but when the storm comes, nobody can get away.
Winter in the Catskills offers the ideal backdrop for a restful—possibly even romantic—weekend away at Mitchell's Inn, tucked away deep in the forest. Large, antique rooms with massive wood-burning fireplaces, a well-stocked wine cellar, and chances for cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, or just cuddling up with a good murder mystery are all features of this establishment.
As a result, when the weather turns bad and a snowstorm shuts off the lights and all outside communication, the visitors stay there and attempt to make the most of the situation.
However, one of the visitors soon appears dead; it seems to be an accident. But they get frightened when a second visitor passes away.
Something, or someone, is killing the visitors one by one within the snow-covered paradise. They are left with no choice except to fortify themselves and rely on each other to weather the storm together.
