What Is Guests About?

The premise of Guests without spoilers. The whole story is in the plot summary further down.

Young Katya introduces a group of friends with a unique pastime: hosting parties in unoccupied homes. She suggests an old coastal house, abandoned for a long time, which seems like the perfect secluded spot. Unbeknownst to the group, the house once hosted a spiritualist salon and carries an unsettling atmosphere. During the party, a mysterious figure appears—the house's former owner and a man Katya once loved, now seemingly controlled by supernatural forces.

Guests Plot Summary

What happens in Guests from start to finish, spoilers included, with a timeline of 11 key events. The opening is below; the full summary is a 2-minute read.

Spoilers ahead

A claustrophobic, unsettling thriller unfolds as a frightened young woman named Mary wakes up in a stranger’s bedroom, disoriented and fearful. Her injuries have left her partially blind and deaf, turning the room into a hazy, muffled space where every sound feels distant and fragile. The homeowner, [The Woman], steps in with careful hands, cleaning wounds and placing a small hearing aid that brings a thin thread of sound back to Mary’s ears. The exchange between them is measured and wary: The Woman asks what happened, while Mary struggles to piece together the events that led her to this abrupt morning, her voice barely above a whisper, her body tense with lingering panic.
