Each letter brings truth. And every truth brings someone closer to death.
In a quiet rural town wrapped in fog and memory, a forgotten post office reopens โ not out of demand, but out of necessity. Letters have started arriving again. No stamps. No return address. And all of themโฆ from the dead.
Dead Letters (2025) is a chilling, slow-burn supernatural mystery that weaves together grief, guilt, and ghostly communication with an almost literary elegance. When Mara, a grieving archivist fleeing her past, takes a job restoring the townโs long-abandoned postal station, she discovers an old letter locked in a rusted box โ addressed to a woman who died 40 years ago. She delivers it out of curiosity. The next day, that womanโs grave is desecrated, and strange things begin to occur.
As more letters arrive, Mara is drawn into a pattern of eerie messages, each seemingly written by someone long gone โ and each triggering a real-world event that mirrors the pain, betrayal, or death the letter contains. A widow receives an apology from her murdered husband. A pastor finds a confession meant to be buried. And Mara herself? She receives one tooโฆ from someone she lost and never forgave.
Told in a haunting tone reminiscent of The Others and The Ring, Dead Letters is less about jump scares and more about the ghosts we keep alive through memory, regret, and the words we never dared to send. As the town begins to unravel, Mara must uncover who โ or what โ is writing the lettersโฆ and why hers warns: Youโre next.
