The premise

A team of parapsychologists sets out to investigate a series of anomalous phenomena taking place in a newly occupied apartment. Telephone calls with no caller, mysterious shadows, extraordinary light emissions, flying objects, and exploding light bulbs are some of the events they will face while recording their every step with state-of-the-art technology. Using infrared filming, digital photography, psychophonic recordings, movement detectors, and magnetic field alteration meters, the group’s attempts to contact the “other side” will grow increasingly dangerous as they near a point of no return.

Horror Vault's take

When a family's new apartment becomes a hotbed of terrifying unexplained activity, a team of parapsychologists moves in with cameras and cutting-edge equipment to document everything. What begins as a methodical scientific inquiry quickly spirals into something far more disturbing than cold data and readouts can explain. The cramped, surveillance-saturated space becomes a pressure cooker as the phenomena escalate and the investigators are forced to question what — or who — is truly at the center of the haunting.
