Intriguing concept, sounds like it could be a fun horror ride. This logline is quite long though, it's usually best to focus on the world. protagonist, goal, conflict and stakes to make it more succinct.

For example: 'A recovering addict courts his estranged friends to help burn down a forest he believes a malicious demon is hiding in, causing old grudges to resurface as the friends become torn between loyalty and belief.'
