It’s summer 2005, in the medieval city of York, England - reportedly the most haunted city in the world.

Blissfully unaware he has trespassed onto a gun-toting old hippie’s farm, he finds her ravenous guard dog fast on his tail. With little chance of negotiation, Jack’s casual jog becomes a wild sprint for his life. Desperately, he ‘borrows’ the old hippie’s bicycle in an attempt to evade the dog’s bite, and back on the university campus, his wheel-spinning story fuels a cruel prank by his room mates, who play with his concept of ‘common space’, thereby catalyzing a series of farcical and hilarious conflicts that spiral out of control.
