Tantalisingly, all Steve Pemberton and Reece Shearsmith will give away about this live special is that it's Halloween night and a man is making his way home through the graveyard of a church when he finds a mobile on one of the graves. His attempt to contact the owner unleashes a dark chain of events. Be there and be scared.
