It's 1892. Nothing ever happens in the small town of Bridgewood. The town receives a letter from Chicago with an order to build a house. After the builder finishes the house, a mysterious man arrives and moves in. The newcomer rarely comes out and barely acknowledges the people of the town. It's a complete mystery until five years later.
This is an 11 minute short. It's really an old way of storytelling with narration. It's almost like a story being told around campfire. It could have been a spooky ghost story but the ending leaves it much more tamer and sweeter. It's interesting but not the most thrilling.
