Six Thousand Club

Synopsis:
Salem has always been a place of history and mystery, but for a group of unsuspecting young adults, it’s about to become something much more dangerous. Each drawn to the town by an unknown force, they find themselves inexplicably connected to an ancient tome, one that whispers secrets in the night, changes pages on its own, and seems to know them better than they know themselves.
At first, it feels like a coincidence. A historian researching the trials, a skeptic looking for thrills, a modern witch practicing in secret. One by one, they come across the tome and feel its pull. But as they uncover its power, Salem itself begins to change. Strange symbols appear in the streets, people fall into inexplicable trances, and the once-harmless reenactments of the witch trials begin to feel all too real. Soon, they realize that history is repeating itself in the worst way possible, and they are at the center of it all.
Some believe the tome is a gift, others a curse. But one thing is certain: someone wants its power for themselves, and if the group doesn’t learn to control it first, they may be the next to burn.
