When Dr. Tara Evans returns to her childhood village, she expects resistance from the superstitious townsfolk-but not the eerie transformation overtaking her once-vibrant mother. As whispers of possession ripple through the village and strange occurrences shadow Agatha's decline, Tara is caught between science and the unknown. Is there a medical explanation for her mother's suffering, or is something far more sinister lurking beneath the surface? As fear tightens its grip and the line between reason and superstition blurs, Tara must uncover the truth-before it's too late.
