Story Synopsis

Guaranteed to give the willies and featuring a quartet of screen legends—Astaire, Douglas, Fairbanks and Houseman—four elderly friends meet once a month to drink wine and tell ghost stories by the fire—deep inside hiding a dark secret from their past. But when terrifying nightmares and unexplained occurances threaten their lives, Don (Wasson), the son of Fairbanks’ character, comes to the surviving members with a ghost story about a mysterious woman (Krige in a bone-chilling performance) they know.
