Seven young adults, Chris, Sidney, Ben, Barbara, Laura, Joline and Tim, who were best friends as teenagers have planned reunion and decide to go camping in the woods of Scotland. While sitting around the campfire, they are attacked by wild dogs, who badly injures Sidney. Tim manages to scare the dogs off with a burning branch of fire long enough for the others to get Sidney back to their van and hide from the dogs. They start the van, but in their hurry to escape, Tim drives their van into a tree. When waking up from the crash, they discover Sidney is slowly bleeding to death, so they decide to take a walk and find some help.

Chris discovers an old mansion and they hide from the dogs there and decide to wait until it's morning and call for rescue nearby. It's not long before they start hearing strange noises coming from upstairs. Hoping someone's home who can help them, Chris and Tim go upstairs, but they find no one. Chris later goes up to the attic where he sees a shadow shivering in the corner of the room. When approaching, he discovers it's Tim, who's shaking out of fear, and Chris soon gets a strange vision of funeral pyres, dead people and a scary looking woman. When he suddenly sees that same woman appear as a ghost in front of him, he takes Tim with him downstairs where they lock themselves in a room. While Tim goes into shock and Chris and Laura, Tim's girlfriend, try to reanimate him, strange noises come from outside the room, and black fire seems to be coming through the walls, burning Joline alive. Unable to save Tim, Chris takes the lead and gets everyone out of the room to hide somewhere else.

While Sidney has a conversation with his sister Barbara about his wife being pregnant, Joline's boyfriend Ben finds an old book that describes a story to a young girl, written by her mother, Mary McBaine. Things get worse when the gang hears Tim screaming for help. Knowing he's dead, and thus unable to do this, they realize the house is haunted, and someone's pretending to be Tim. Laura can't block out her feelings and runs away to find Tim. The group splits up to find both Laura and a way out. Barbara is the next one to bump into the woman's ghost, who is revealed to be able to become corporal, and she sends Barbara a vision about her past. Barbara is found in time by the others and she seems to be okay. She's brought back to Sidney who, despite bleeding heavily, is still doing fine.

Chris and Ben meanwhile head out to find Laura and instead, once again come face to face with Mary. Ben saves Chris just in time and they hear strange noises coming from a small, locked room next to the attic. They enter the dark tunnel, desperate to find a way out. Sidney and Barbara try to distract each other by singing and telling each other stories, until they see the black fire approaching them again. The light goes out and they see another corporal, more beautiful version of Mary. Suddenly the light goes on again and Barbara reaches out to the place where Mary was standing seconds ago. She gets another vision. Up at the attic, Laura finds Tim sitting in the corner, naked, and black eyed. He asks her why he left her when he was dying, and she realizes someone is possessing Tim. Laura is soon attacked by an unseen force and dies.
