Nine years after a documentary crew and a bunch of haunted house patrons died at the Abaddon Hotel, mysteries still surround it. Bodies were never recovered, people have since gone missing, and families are tormented by messages from their loved ones long after they gave them up for dead. An investigative journalist (Jillian Geurts) contacts the lone survivor (Vas Eli) and convinces him to go back to find supposed tapes in the basement of the house's founder, Andrew Tully, performing rituals with his cult. A noted TV psychic (Kyle Ingleman) joins the group.
The first two-thirds of the movie are good, if a little like a retread of the first, and the additional lore isn't much of an addition, but the last third does nothing but set up the third installment of the franchise and that always feels lazy. I'll probably still end up watching it next year. It started out as a Shudder exclusive but now it's available on Tubi.
