The premise

When ambitious young real estate agent Leigh is asked to sell a house with a checkered past, she crosses paths with a disturbed girl whom she learns is the runaway daughter of the couple selling the property. When Leigh tries to intervene and help her, she becomes entangled with a supernatural force that soon pulls Leigh's artist sister Vera into its web - and has sinister plans for both of them.

Horror Vault's take

A routine real estate assignment turns into a nightmare when a young agent stumbles upon a troubled girl connected to a property's dark history. What begins as an act of compassion draws her — and her artist sister — into the orbit of something ancient and malevolent. Director Nicholas McCarthy builds quiet, suffocating dread across intersecting storylines, each circling closer to a force that seems to have been waiting patiently for the right souls. This is folk-tinged supernatural horror that rewards patience with genuine unease.
