Eric Holliday landed what seemed like a dream job, caring for the Chateau Femme through the winter months when Chateau Femme is closed each year. The job is going to be perfect: solitude, relaxation, quiet… at least that’s how it looks on paper. But Eric is only alone for a few hours before he gets his reality check. The extreme, unpredictable storms are constantly knocking out the power and blowing open windows. After a single night, Eric is snowed in, feeling suddenly claustrophobic in the 24,000 square foot lodge. And to make matters worse, he’s not actually alone; he’s stuck in that lodge with a ghost. He’s never been a believer in the paranormal, but there’s no other way to explain the strange noises, the moving objects, the piano that keeps playing itself… and there’s no other way to explain why Eric’s personal clothes have disappeared, or why girly outfits keep showing up in his little room. The ghost seems to want him to dress up like a chick, and with nothing else to wear (and cold weather blowing into the lodge), Eric doesn’t have many other options. Not to mention, who wants to get on a ghost’s bad side?
