School Rumors VHS

SCHOOL RUMORS
directed and shot by
BECKETT WAGNER

Thirty years ago, the basement floor of Stony Brook High School was completely sealed during al renovation project. Staircases were built over and elevators were shut off, leaving the whole floor untouched and forgotten.

Once every few years, a particularly naive or curious student follows the rumors and manages to find his way down.
Little do they know that something strange had been allowed to grow unchecked in the years the basement had been left empty.
Something predatory that fills the gaps between walls and seeps through the ceilings and floors.

What starts as a simple desire to explore becomes a desperate struggle to escape as these unfortunate students, arded with nothing but a camera and their wits, are slowly forced to accept that they're not alone.

- Includes an as-of-yet unseen standalone video from Beckett Wagner, shot entirely on VHS in 2023 and left unreleased until now.
