Host is a Shudder original horror mystery released in July 2020. The story revolves around six friends on a Zoom call during the COVID-19 lockdown that performs a seance. Unsurprisingly, their fun idea quickly takes a turn for the worse as supernatural events plague the group performing the dangerous ritual.
