Spirit in the Blood

Spirit in the Blood

Fourteen-year-old Emerson Grimm returns to her father‘s secluded and religious hometown, St. Belvedere. Shortly after her arrival a local fifteen-year-old girl, Rebecca, vanishes. When Rebecca’s mutilated body is discovered, Pastor Carl blames a wild animal, but Emerson suspects a more sinister force after her encounter with a "Monster". Dismissed as fantasy, Emerson‘s warnings leave her isolated. That is until Delilah, her tough new friend, starts to believe her. Together Emerson and Delilah—along with their fellow classmates—invoke a ritual to summon their 'Dark Spirit' to confront the predator stalking their town. Uncertain of their newfound powers‘ origin, Emerson must grapple with the consequences. As the rituals escalate, chaos erupts, challenging the town‘s faith and authority. When blamed for another victim‘s demise, the girls face trial and are stripped of power by Pastor Carl. With danger looming, Emerson must choose between conforming to St. Belvedere‘s norms or confronting the monster with Delilah‘s aid. She chooses to fight.
