1903. Omaha, Nebraska. Once a prominent fixture in Omaha's high society, Nina Wilson is now drowning in debt and disgrace following the untimely death of her father. Her engagement has been broken off, her family's grand estate has fallen into disrepair, and her mother, consumed by grief, is incapable of running the household. Attempting to bring closure to her grieving mother, Nina invites a mysterious medium, Leroy Marshall, into their home.

The man's presence seems to have awakened something otherworldly in the house itself, and now it's stepping out of the shadows, refusing to leave. Show more
