There was once a little girl named Mari.
She and her family owned a carnival. But 
ever since her little sister died because of an unknown sickness, she was never
happy again. For her 4th birthday, her parents
gave her a doll. She promised not to lose it, in
memory of her sisiter. One day, she had nothing to do in their carnival, since her parents were to busy with some tourists. So she explored the enormous carnival with her favorite doll. When she was almost at the end of the carnival, she saw a place that was called the "House of Mirrors." She was curious and very eager to go inside because of the yellow caution rope around it. She never knew what it meant, but she went inside anyway. When she was about to go inside she heard someone. "Pssst" was the sound she heard. She started to become scared, and ran in the house of mirrors as fast as she could, not trying to stop. When she was about to go out the exit, somebody grabbed her hand. But when she turned around, nobody was there.

Antique store owner Liz brings home a Victorian taxidermy hound from auction, unwittingly unleashing dark forces on her wife and son. ***** Nat Loman has finally married the love of her life, Liz, and is getting used to her role as stepmother to Liz's 5-year-old son, Liam. The Loman family runs a bustling antique business so they attend a sale where a striking, black taxidermied hound is up for auction. Liz picks it up for the business, but it ends up being stored in their home, where Nat notices strange things occurring. She quickly discovers the past residents had died violently. Then she hears from a friend about the myth of "the devil's dog", a hound that perches in the shadows, tearing families apart from the inside. Soon, people around the Lomans are dying, and Liz is changing, darkening. It's up to Nat to save the woman she loves from the darkness closing in, and to save Liam from danger no matter what she has to sacrifice.
