Mask of 304 – Synopsis

Genre: Sci-Fi Horror / Psychological Thriller
Format: Feature Film (Franchise Potential)

On the 304th day of the year — Halloween night — humiliation becomes horror.
Evan Carter, a soft-spoken young man from a quiet Midwestern town, becomes the unwilling face of a viral humiliation after a group of bullies attack him while defending a woman he admires. The video spreads across social media, mocking him as “Pumpkin Head.”

Broken and shamed, Evan encounters a mysterious drifter who offers him an ancient relic — the Mask of 304, a supernatural object bound to vengeance and regret. When Evan dons the mask, he transforms into a fiery, pumpkin-skulled entity that blurs the line between victim and villain.

What begins as retribution against his tormentors spirals into a night of chaos, where even the innocent who laughed online become targets. Each act of vengeance fuels the mask’s power — and erases more of Evan’s humanity. As the woman he once tried to protect discovers his secret, she must confront the monster born from the world’s cruelty before the 304th day ends in flames.

Mask of 304 delivers a modern, social-media-fueled spin on urban legend horror — where virality becomes a curse, and every share has a price.
Stylish, psychological, and designed for franchise expansion, it’s Candyman meets Chronicle with a Gen-Z viral twist.
