Some roads lead to the past – where history is waiting to settle its debts. A late-night drive. A wrong turn. A village that shouldn’t exist.
Seven solicitors leave a Dublin law conference in high spirits, their minivan cutting through the darkened countryside. When a motorway diversion forces them onto an unfamiliar road, they find themselves lost in thick fog—rolling slowly into a remote village that feels disturbingly out of time.
Seeking directions, they step inside an old pub where the air hangs heavy with unease. The patrons watch in silence. Their clothes are wrong. Their faces haunted. Their words laden with grief. And then the truth begins to surface.
This is not 2024. It is 1922.
Ireland is tearing itself apart in the aftermath of Michael Collins’ assassination at Béal na Bláth. But the past has not drawn them here by accident. Each of them carries an unspoken connection to this moment, a secret buried deep within their blood.
One by one, they uncover the horrifying truth: they are the descendants of the men who ambushed Collins. This is no mere journey into history. It is a reckoning.
As the fog thickens and the village closes in around them, the seven are forced to confront their ancestral sins. Justice has been waiting. And history does not let the guilty walk free.
Some will fight to escape. Some will seek redemption. But one thing is certain, not all of them will return.
Ancestral Sins is a chilling journey into Ireland’s haunted pas,where the dead are restless, and the guilty can never truly run.
