The Long Night (also known as The Coven) is a 2022 American horror film written by Robert Sheppe and Mark Young and directed Rich Ragsdale. It stars Scout Taylor-Compton, Nolan Gerard Funk, Jeff Fahey, Deborah Kara Unger. The film is about a couple whose quiet weekend takes a bizarre turn when a nightmarish cult and their maniacal leader come to fulfill an apocalyptic prophesy.[4][5]
A young couple from a big city, Grace and Jack, are on the verge of beginning the rest of their lives together. Two obstacles stand in their way: Grace meets Jack's wealthy, judgmental parents, and Jack accompanies Grace to her hometown in the deep south. There, she desperately wants to locate her biological parents and bring closure to her mysterious childhood past before embracing her bright future.
The meeting with Jack's parents causes a slight rift between the two lovers but is just a foreshadowed speed bump before a full-on collision with terror. Upon arriving at a large estate owned by a man who has reached out to Grace about her past, the couple discovers an empty house shrouded in secrets. Grace begins to mentally unravel as her dark destiny appears to hover over the vast farmhouse walls and seep into her psyche.
The town's welcoming committee arrives at dusk to greet the visitors. Instead of offering food and drink, the masked and cloaked group presents a dead kitten, burning pentagrams, and a symbol of death on a stick. Jack and Grace attempt to fight and flee as the ancient, dark history behind Grace's existence is revealed.
