The premise
Having recovered from a shattering emotional breakdown, college professor Ben Marshall relocates to the countryside with his wife and young son, hoping for a fresh start. He has a teaching job lined up and a new home to move into; things finally look to be going Ben's way. Until, that is, he starts to feel that something isn't quite right in the house. Finding himself plagued by spectral visions, Ben becomes obsessed with uncovering the truth behind a local mystery that appears to be putting the lives of his family in danger
Horror Vault's take
After a devastating psychological collapse, professor Ben Marshall moves his family to a remote country house, hoping the quiet surroundings will mark a turning point. Before long, strange visions begin to fracture his hard-won stability, blurring the line between haunting and delusion. A troubling local mystery draws him deeper into an obsession that threatens everything he has rebuilt — and everyone he loves.
