High Schooler, Clancy joins his longtime friend, PETER (ELLIS) and their friends for pumpkin picking. CHRISSY (MORGAN), Peter's girlfriend, and Clancy's longtime crush joins them as they take on the corn maze. Just as they enter, Clancy has an ominous feeling. Something evil lies within the maze. He causes a scene and remains outside. Chrissy stays with him and Peter stays with Chrissy. But their friends enter the maze.
Hours later, they have yet to return. The farm swarms with officers and civilians, who form search parties. The missing teenagers make the local news.  Peter believes his friends are playing a joke, so they check out one of their houses. But Clancy fears something far more sinister. That night, Clancy has a nightmare. He is in the maze when the stalks of corn attack. He runs and runs until there's no escape.
The stalks crush him. He wakes up from his dream, soaking wet from his sweat. Peter calls him and reveals he had the same exact dream. The next morning, they go to Chrissy's house. She's disappeared. Clancy believes the maze is responsible. Somehow, someway, Chrissy is in the maze and they need to save her. Clancy is drawn to the maze now. Peter stops him from running into the maze. They need help and Peter knows who can help him.
All Things Weird is a shop downtown, run by GRADY OLSEN, an old man who's seen his fair share of weird in Brookville and the one person who knows its history. Olsen reveals the town's sinister past - Brookville resides atop the original settlement of Mathertown. A place infamous for its bloody ending. The town's pastor struck a deal with a witch, AGATHA, in the woods for their settlement to be fruitful in exchange for a child.
Once the settlement had success in their farming, Agatha came to collect the pastor's child, but he refused. She murders the pastor and his death sparks and violent response from the settlers as they turn on each other. Agatha promises the dying pastor that she will be back to reclaim her side of the bargain. Centuries later, Olsen reveals that Clancy is the descendant of the pastor and Agatha is here for him.
Clancy won't go without a fight or his friends. He has a plan. Clancy enters the maze alone and finds himself in the Mathertown settlement on the night of pastor's murder. The scene of his death unfolds before him. Then Agatha turns her sights on Clancy. They strike a deal. Clancy for his friends. Agatha agrees. Suddenly, the settlement is on fire. Clancy makes his escape with Chrissy and their missing friends.
They escape the corn maze to discover it's on fire courtesy of Peter. The entire town has come to put it out when Agatha appears. She grabs Clancy and soars in the air with him. Clancy gets free. Headbutts Agatha and they both fall towards the fiery maze, but only Clancy survives. But will Agatha return for him one day?
