Donal is gullible so when he's told that his friend was shot he obviously believes it. As he tries to uncover what happened, he's confronted by lies only to discover he isn't dead after all. With the lies unravelling into reality, it's only a matter of time until the inevitable happens.

SYNOPSIS:

The silence of Donal’s graveyard shift at the petrol station is shattered by his ghoulish friend Rhys, who has just escaped from a fancy-dress party.

Rhys half falls into the petrol station covered in sweat, fearful that he was followed and revealing that Kees, another one of the group is dead.

As he talks with each of them, he imagines the different points of view of what happened. Each of his friends tells a fragment of the story but from the perspective of the fancy-dress character they are dressed as. While Kees appears to Donal as a shape-changing figure, who changes according to Donal’s imagination.

As several people disappear only to reappear and Kees finally dies on the way to the hospital it becomes clear that they all need to find someplace safe until they can understand what’s happening.

They all finally reach the place of safety only Kees once more appears to Donal but this time it’s the real Kees and everyone can see him not just Donal. The group reveals that it was an elaborate practical joke played on him and Kees was not dead at all. This angers and worries Donal as he has been visited by Kees’s ghost or what he had thought was his ghost. So, when the living and breathing Kees stands next to the imaginary one Donal struggles to grasp what has happened. Is he insane?

As they return many similar situations that had been part of the practical joke start to repeat themselves in real life and the group all begin to see the ghost of Kees.

They all begin to realize what is happening and attempt to avoid the hands of fate and stop the fiction from becoming reality.

Each group member presents their unreliable perspective of the story to Donal in their chosen genre. Rhys in the Horror style, Isobel in the Rom-Com style, Patsy uses Spy-fi, Nona in a Western-style, Etta is the queen of Melodrama, and Carson is the king of Sci-fi – aliens.
