Há muito tempo uma história sinistra é contada na pequena Chapel Croft. Cinco séculos atrás, mártires protestantes foram traídos, e então queimados. Trinta anos atrás, duas adolescentes desapareceram sem deixar vestígios. E há algumas semanas, o responsável pela paróquia local se enforcou na nave da igreja. A reverenda Jack Brooks, mãe solteira de uma jovem de quatorze anos, chega a esse vilarejo em busca de um recomeço. Em vez disso, encontra um lugar tomado por conspirações e segredos, e é recebida com um estranho pacote de boas-vindas—um kit de exorcismo e um bilhete.

Em 1986, Eddie e os amigos passam a maior parte dos dias andando de bicicleta pela pacata vizinhança em busca de aventuras.

Mas um desenho misterioso leva o grupo de crianças até um corpo desmembrado e espalhado em um bosque. Depois disso, nada mais é como antes. Em 2016, Eddie se esforça para superar o passado, até que um dia ele e os amigos de infância recebem um mesmo aviso: o desenho de um homem de giz enforcado.
