Vengeful Ghostly Sisters Return Every Summer to Possess Townsfolk in a Cursed Coastal Oregon Town
Two centuries ago in the isolated coastal town of Sparrow, Oregon, three sisters were executed for witchcraft by being drowned in the ocean. Every summer during "Swan Season," the vengeful spirits of the Swan sisters return, possessing the bodies of local teenage girls to lure unsuspecting boys into the ocean to drown.
Seventeen-year-old local Penny Talbot accepts the town's dark annual ritual until mysterious newcomer Bo Carter arrives, forcing Penny to choose between guarding the town's curse and protecting the boy she is falling for.
