Cause of Death
Synopsis (subject to change):

Stuck in the small town of Somerton, Connecticut, Mandi Black is fairly happy with her life. She has good friends, lives in the best house ever (in her opinion), and does good in school. The class hottie might even like her...

However, Mandi and her best friend Sam have found some unusual goings on. Mysterious figures in the woods behind their houses, strange dreams that seem to be telling them something. All things lead to the abandoned old mansion that is supposedly 'haunted.' In an attempt to discover the truth, Mandi and Sam check out the house.. and meet seven ghosts with their own sad tales, and one thing in common: the cause of their deaths.

In a desperate attempt to figure out who the ghosts are and what they're up to, Mandi makes the decision to talk to them. Unable to hear or see them without the ghosts wanting him to, or without being in contact with Mandi, Sam sticks to researching. He eventually uncovers the scandal surrounding the Bryans Seven: a group of seven young adults put to death after playing a prank on judge Bryans that ended in the death of his wife. The seven ghosts have a different story than the one released to the media; and are out for revenge on the town that condemned them.

With the truth finally revealed to them, Mandi and Sam need to learn how to release these ghosts from their captivity on earth, or the entire town may suffer...

I love the storyline! It's mysterious and suspenseful. It makes you want to know what happens next. I tried thinking of a name to help you out. I came up with In Your Darkest Dreams. Just a suggestion.
