2026: A dream home. A fresh start. A nightmare waiting inside?
Kate and Patrick are struggling through life. After living on one wage since the birth of their son, Riley, Patrick is suddenly unemployed.
Bouncing from one bad interview to the next, the family are offered a lifeline when Kate receives a phone call. She has inherited a house on the northeast coast from her late aunt.
A beautiful Victorian townhouse. A new beginning.
Excited for the change, the family move hundreds of miles from their Beaconsfield home to the North East coast. The house needs a lot of work, but that doesn’t deter Kate. She is determined to make it work for them.
But from the first night, Kate notices something isn’t right. Things are moved or go missing. Objects vanish… then reappear. At first Kate tells herself it’s stress. The disarray of the move. Her young son.
Until night falls and she hears footsteps upstairs.
