Sarah is interested in doing a documentary on the paranormal. She had some sort of supernatural experience as a child and decides to make her film on shadow people. She enlists her friends as cameraman and sound man, and the three of them head out to get footage for their film.
They interview people who’ve had encounters with shadow people. One guy is so antagonistic it seems unlikely he would have agreed to meet them. He shows them footage from a security camera but will only let them see it once and they can’t film it. Then he says he’s going to delete the footage. It makes no sense.
Their next stop is meeting a woman who had encounters thirty years ago. Her family abandoned their home afterwards. When she mentions the house is nearby, Sarah convinces her to give them the address. The woman is hesitant so Sarah says they’ll just get a few shots of the exterior and leave. But of course, it’s never enough just to get footage of the outside and warning are not heeded. They have to go in and stay the night. Goodbye team, been nice knowing you.
The problem with this movie is most of it is filler. It’s mostly people riding in cars, having long conversations including ten minutes about farts, talking about anything except shadow people, and going to tourist attractions. Maybe that would be okay if the characters were likable, but they aren’t. The guys are really annoying. They’re the types of guys you’d avoid at parties or try to look busy if they approved you at work.

| There is a lot of footage of camping, eating and tourist attractions |
 |
| The cleanest abandoned house ever. No dust on the mantle, pictures, floor or windows |
 |
| Sarah is not amused. |
 |
| The house has been abandoned for thirty years but there are no cobwebs on the ceiling fan. |
 |
| The outside of the house looks far more abandoned than the inside. |
