As the sun sets on the small town of Oakwood, a sense of unease settles over the Darcey family. It's been six months since the tragic loss of their mother, Lily, leaving her husband, Lester, and two daughters, Sadie and Luz, reeling from the emotional toll of her passing. For Sadie, 15 years old, it's as if the pain has become a palpable force that permeates every moment of her life. Her younger sister Luz, just 10 years old, is more resilient but still struggling to comprehend the absence of their mother's warmth and love. As they navigate their grief-stricken lives, an ominous presence begins to manifest in their family home. At first, it's just a faint whispering, a soft creaking of floorboards that can't be explained away by the normal settling of an old house. But as time passes, the occurrences grow more frequent and more intense. Sadie is initially skeptical of the strange happenings, attributing them to her own fragile state of mind or mere coincidence. However, Luz becomes increasingly convinced that something malevolent lurks in the shadows, watching their every move with sadistic intent. As the sisters' fears escalate, they turn to their father, Lester, for comfort and protection. But he's too consumed by his own grief and guilt over Lily's passing to notice or care about the strange happenings in the house. He becomes increasingly distant and detached, leaving the girls to fend for themselves against the unseen terror that haunts them. With their world crumbling around them, Sadie and Luz must find a way to confront the Boogeyman head-on and reclaim control over their lives. But as they delve deeper into the mystery of the haunted house, they'll discover that some secrets are better left buried, and that the true horror may not be the monster lurking in the shadows, but rather the darkness that lurks within themselves.
