A haunted family home. But what if it's not demons that are causing the terror, but the family itself?

I don't believe in ghosts, I believe in family dinners.

A mother who is terrified of sleeping alone, but even more so of the possibility of a U-Haul. A father capable of lightening even an exorcism if he can make a sexist joke about it. An emo son who admires Foucault, benzodiazepines, and ultimately kajda. A daughter who turns her family's breakdown into a school report (grammar: bad, trauma: excellent, nose: unforgettable).

50 Square Demons is a parody of horror movies and sitcoms. At the same time, it is a campy conversational comedy focusing on the story of a family that calls on a medium for help instead of therapy. And yes, the house is really haunted. But admitting to a ghost is easier than facing your demons. And haunting is always more comfortable than leaving.

If you listen closely, you might hear the wood working. Knock, knock, knock. Ihááááá.
