He's not from around here...

In the sun-baked expanse of Arizona, where the asphalt glares and the dust whispers secrets, "The Wraith" unfolds as a neon-lit vigilante tale. Packard Walsh, a tyrannical biker kingpin, reigns over a town through fear and forced drag races, until his violent death at the hands of Jamie Hankins ignites a spectral vengeance. Enter Jake Kesey, a spectral avenger in chrome and leather, who rides the line between justice and retribution, mentoring Jamie's brother Bill and courting the grief-stricken Keri. With an unstoppable car and a righteous fury, Jake dismantles Walsh's empire, leaving the law powerless in the face of supernatural vengeance.
