In the countryside near Clophill, Bedfordshire, on top of a hill overlooking the town, lies the ruins of [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_Mary%27s_Church,_Clophill St. Mary's Church]]. Once the town's main church, it was closed for good when another one was built within the town. Then the lead was taken from the building, and ever since, it's become infamous as a hotbed of paranormal activity. Its most significant event there was a black mass held in it in 1963, which involved the sacrificing of animals and the desecrating of the dead body of a woman buried in its cemetery named Sophia.

In the countryside near Clophill, Bedfordshire, on top of a hill overlooking the town, lies the ruins of Clophill church. Once the town's main church, it was closed for good when another one was built within the town. Then the lead was taken from the building, and ever since, it's become infamous as a hotbed of paranormal activity. Its most significant event there was a black mass held in it in 1963, which involved the sacrificing of animals and the desecrating of the dead body of a woman buried in its cemetery named Sophia.

The year is 2010, and a group of paranormal investigators have gone up to the church to investigate, confirming whether or not the rumours are true. What follows will be three long nights that may change their whole view on ghosts.

The movie was released August 23rd, 2013.
