Kate (Skye), an ambitious commercial real estate agent has her sights set on a big contract, with a wealthy investment manager (Sage). The deal is lucrative, but it is suddenly on the rocks as Kate and Mr. Browning, and the rest of the people involved in the deal must survive a mysterious supernatural trap. In order to escape with their lives, Kate must find the clues to the building’s past.

Inspired by the New York Triangle Factory Fire, which left hundreds of female workers dead, Ascent to Hell is a classic ghost story about this former sweatshop and the ghosts that are trying to escape. Starring Azura Skye (One Missed Call), Bill Sage (We Are What We Are), John Randall Hennigan (aka Johnny Mundo from Lucha Underground) and Cayleb Long, Ascent to Hell is directed by Dena Hysell.
