Hulu's monthly horror anthology, 'Into the Dark' is back with its sixth installment, titled 'Treehouse' and this time, the monthly festival it revolves around is the sinister ides of March. As the belief goes, the date - March 15 - was marked by several religious observances, and was also significant among the Romans as a deadline for settling debts.

It gained major popularity from the Shakespearean play 'Julius Caesar' wherein the king was conspired against and murdered on the very day. And playing along the same lines, 'Treehouse' shows the tale of "celeb-chef, Peter Rake, who tries to escape a recent wave of negative tabloid exposure by retreating to his family’s vacation estate in the woods. But the ghosts of Peter’s past are everywhere and debts will be settled. Soon, he realizes that a woman’s place is anywhere that she chooses to be," according to the episode's official synopsis.
