In the winding alleys of Venice, Italy, a historic hotel has seen many guests come and go. Amongst the creaky floors and faded wallpaper lurks an eerie presence - the ghosts and spirits of those who have passed on from this world. Here, we meet Andy and Deloris Moore, a young couple from Paris who have decided to spend their vacation in this haunted abode. Excitement courses through their veins as they make their way to the top of the building, eager to experience the thrill of the unknown. Little did they know that they were about to be plunged into a world of terror and uncertainty. As they settle down in their room, strange occurrences occur. Doors slam shut on their own, footsteps echo through the halls at night, and voices whisper in their ears when no one is around. At first, Andy and Deloris brush off these happenings as figments of their imagination. However, as time passes, the incidents become more frequent and intense. The couple finds themselves at the mercy of the malevolent spirits that haunt the hotel. They soon realize that there is no escape from the clutches of the supernatural, and they must face their fears head-on if they are to survive. As the conflict rises, the couple struggles to understand their situation. Their fear and anxiety mount with each passing moment, and they question their sanity. Andy becomes increasingly paranoid while Deloris tries to maintain her composure and escape this nightmare. The cause and effect of the conflict is clear - every action leads to a terrifying consequence that keeps them trapped in the hotel. Despite their best efforts, it seems as though the ghosts have no intention of letting them leave. In a desperate bid for survival, Andy and Deloris delve deeper into the history of the hotel in an attempt to uncover the truth behind the spirits' wrath. What they discover is a dark secret that has been buried for centuries, and they realize that they are not the first to fall victim to the hotel's curse. In a climactic scene, the couple confronts the source of the supernatural activity and must fight for their lives against an unseen force.
