description

An aspiring vlogger discovers a notebook detailing hidden portals in her hometown, leading her on a journey to discover the city's supernatural history.

After paranormal vlogger Colby vanishes, a documentary crew digs through her content and recovered footage to uncover the truth. What they find is her growing obsession with a strange coil-bound book and the escalating hauntings that followed. As Colby searches for a sign from her late father, friends and family reveal the chilling descent that led to her disappearance. EARTH TO COLBY is produced with the support of TELUS STORYHIVE, and the first feature from Calgary director Rino Mioc.
