A supernatural thriller exploring belief, grief, and the possibility of ghosts.
Jenny believes that her new home is haunted, convinced that she hears unexplained sounds at precisely 2:22 a.m. every night. Her husband Sam remains skeptical, dismissing her fears as irrational. When their friends Lauren and Ben join them for a housewarming dinner, a debate emerges over the existence of ghosts, belief, and the supernatural. As the evening progresses, personal tensions surface alongside increasingly unsettling events, leading the group to stay awake until 2:22 a.m. to determine whether the dead can truly return.
