Lesley and Nick Livingston make a life-changing decision: to leave the hustle and bustle of New York City behind and find peace in an idyllic lake house in the tranquil town of Arcaden. The water glistens serenely, but beneath the facade of beauty lies a dark secret, a haunting mystery waiting to be unraveled.

Their dreamy lake house, a haven of relaxation, holds a somber history. Leah Meyers, the daughter of the previous owners, tragically drowned there. Yet, this doesn't deter Lesley; she's eager to transform the lake house into a charming home. However, strange and eerie occurrences start unfolding. Lesley senses an ethereal presence, a ghostly figure she believes to be Leah. This unsettling experience begins to fray her sanity and her once-promising photography career spirals toward the precipice of collapse. Matters worsen when Nick goes missing, leaving Lesley to grapple with the eerie lake house all alone.

The clock is ticking, and time is running out.

Can Lesley unravel the mysteries lurking within the house? And will Nick be found before it's too late?
