The premise
In 1967 Los Angeles, a widowed mother and her two daughters add a new stunt to bolster their séance scam business and unwittingly invite authentic evil into their home. When the youngest daughter is overtaken by the merciless spirit, this small family confronts unthinkable fears to save her and send her possessor back to the other side.
Horror Vault's take
Set in late-1960s Los Angeles, this prequel to the original Ouija follows a widowed mother running a fake séance business with her two daughters — until a Ouija board they introduce as a prop tears open a door to something genuinely malevolent. What begins as harmless trickery quickly darkens when the youngest daughter starts exhibiting terrifying changes that no con could explain. Director Mike Flanagan crafts a period-faithful, slow-burning descent into domestic nightmare, anchored by a standout young performance that will get under your skin long after the credits roll.
