Inspired by Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House, Snake in Fridge examines the sordid lives of a group of young misfits living in a creepy Victorian house.

When one of the housemates accepts a snake to cover a debt, the snake disappears and bizarre things begin to happen. Eventually, they begin to wonder if it is the snake or the spirit of the house that is haunting them. Things come to a head when the group – an internet porn performer, a busboy who longs to be a waiter, a nude dancer, her mentally-challenged sister and a mail stripped – discovery that one of their own may be a murderer.
