The Hellgate is about Lilian and Stacey, two Horror and Metal fanatics who host the quite unsuccessful YouTube channel Breakdowns & Body Bags. No matter what they try, nobody is interested in the content, until one night, they accidentally capture footage of a ghost in a graveyard. They upload the footage to their channel, which in turn, grants them the success they seek. Unfortunately for the girls, they become haunted by the specter and the more popular they get, the more violent their hauntings become, which in turn start to effect others around them. Lilian is obsessed with discovering the origin of the ghost that is tormenting them. She becomes acquainted with Derek, an “anti-paranormal” investigator and the two are led to meeting Grant Morrison, the groundskeeper of the graveyard who may be more involved in their haunting than he’s letting on.
