A good slasher story!
Hannah is troubled to say the least. When she's invited to a retreat in the desert she goes along with some friends for healing and relaxation. What she got was very different. 
This was part campy, typical horror trope but done well and part slasher, guess who is killing people. Is Hannah imagining everything or is something real happening to those around her?
I definitely had fun with this and while I figured out who the killer was, it didn't ruin the fun for me. I liked the writing and the characters...and the blood, gore and suspense.
