Guests

Katya meets a group of young people with a specific idea of fun - to throw parties in empty private houses. The dampness and dark atmosphere of the place does not scare them. The secluded house, which already hosted spiritual seances in the early 1900s, seems like a great choice to everyone. In the midst of the party appears someone Katya wasn't expecting to see at all - the mysterious owner of the house... the man she was in love with.

The Curse of La Llorona

In 1970s Los Angeles, La Llorona is stalking the night -- and the children. Ignoring the eerie warning of a troubled mother suspected of child endangerment, a social worker and her own small kids are soon drawn into a frightening supernatural realm. Their only hope to survive La Llorona's deadly wrath may be a disillusioned priest and the mysticism he practices to keep evil at bay, on the fringes where fear and faith collide.
