The Vigil

'The Vigil', produced by the Blumhouse factory, presents us with a new universe of horror where a young man will have to test his faith and accept a horrible event from his past life. To do this, one night he will live the vigil of a corpse, with a strange past, which will turn into a real nightmare and will give rise to a succession of strange phenomena that will confront him with his own ghosts. The worst of ghosts stays hidden ... and it's coming for him!
