Prepare to be thrilled, chilled, and moved! For Halloween, Olney Theatre is home to a modern horror story of family, migration, and the spirits that haunt us. It’s 2007, and Thai-American brothers Max and Visarut haven’t had a single case for their paranormal investigation business since they opened. Finally, their first customer arrives: Delia, a Black woman who thinks a Thai-speaking ghost is haunting her house for reasons unknown. Max is happy to sign her up for a deluxe investigation package, but when the brothers visit Delia and her husband Felix at home, strange things begin to happen.
