The film comes in a limited Mediabook edition (only 150 copies) + 20-page Booklet + Slipcase (limited to the pre-order customers).
The story revolves around a small town paperboy who, after stumbling upon the graves of three murdered trick or treaters, discovers a series of handwritten horror stories tacked to the children’s headstones.
