The premise

Grieving over the loss of her son, a mother struggles with her feelings for her daughter and her husband. She seeks out a ritual that allows her say goodbye to her dead child, opening the veil between the world of the dead and the living. Her daughter becomes the focus of terror. She must now protect against the evil that was once her beloved son.

Horror Vault's take

After a devastating family tragedy, a grief-stricken mother living in India discovers an ancient ritual that promises one last chance to say goodbye to her lost child. But the ritual comes with a strict rule she cannot bring herself to obey — and breaking it tears open a passage that should never have been disturbed. What returns is familiar yet deeply, terrifyingly wrong. Now her surviving family faces a darkness that wears the face of someone she loved.
