What is Lil Rel Howery’s Haunted Heist about?
In the film titled “four estranged friends gather at what appears to be an ordinary home,” the plot summary goes: One friend, however, harbors secret intentions; he intends to burglarize the residence and enlists their aid in locating a valuable antique. Unfortunately, the house is genuinely haunted, forcing the group to set aside their disagreements to endure the night and outwit a pack of deranged spirits.
