Horror Vault's take

When a young girl brings home a mysterious antique box from a yard sale, something dark and hungry begins to take hold of her. Her divorced father watches in mounting horror as his daughter's behavior shifts in deeply disturbing ways — and mainstream explanations quickly run dry. Rooted in Jewish folklore surrounding the dybbuk, the film draws on a real-world legend to give its supernatural threat an unsettling cultural authenticity. Two estranged parents must set aside their differences and turn to unlikely allies before the ancient force inside the box claims their child entirely.
