The premise

Welcome to Bedlam Heights. Converted from an imposing former lunatic asylum, this apartment building offers the ultimate in stylish 21st century urban living. But little do its new residents suspect that behind the luxury fittings lay unimaginable horrors.

Horror Vault's take

Bedlam Heights looks like the perfect modern apartment complex — all sleek design and city convenience — but its walls hold a much darker past as a former lunatic asylum. When residents begin experiencing disturbing paranormal events, it becomes clear the building's troubled history has never truly been laid to rest. A young man with the ability to perceive the dead finds himself at the centre of increasingly terrifying encounters that the other tenants cannot explain away. This British supernatural drama builds dread slowly, letting the oppressive architecture speak as loudly as the ghosts themselves.
