Plot

just before a lunar eclipse, American teenager Regina and her family move into a charming old house in the remote Spanish countryside. Since then, nothing has been the same. Day by day, a strange force seems to be pulling the family apart and Regina is the only one willing to search for answers. But she’s about to discover that the answers to her questions lie deep within the walls of their new home: something has been waiting for her family’s arrival, something ancient and wicked; something that hungers for retribution. Now, darkness is closing in on Regina’s family, and she’s their only chance for survival.

Thoughts from the HauntedHouses.com team

With a mixture of elements from “Poltergeist”, “The Shining”, “Hellraiser”, and “The Sixth Sense”, the intensely suspenseful body of the film makes up for the slow beginning. The unconventional ending will leave you either hating the film or loving it.
