When Molly Heyworth comes across an eerie video on the internet, she believes it to be a hoax. It’s an early instalment to a video blog detailing the Garrison family’s home renovations. On her computer, Molly watches the couple tearing down a wall to reveal a room, where no room should exist. But what unnerves her is the strange altar the Garrisons find inside, where strange symbols on the walls and remnants of blood hint at Satanic rituals. As the weeks pass, Molly grows increasingly preoccupied by the family and their tragedies, especially with the two young boys, who are particularly plagued by the forces within the house. When the youngest goes inexplicably missing from inside the house, Molly’s interest turns to obsession. The more she unravels, the more it becomes clear that the horror has already devastated the Garrisons’ world, but for Molly the horror has only just begun.
