> Alyssa is just another overworked nanny in Houston-changing diapers, dealing with tantrums, and trying to make rent one babysitting gig at a time.
But everything changes when she gets a call from a wealthy family with a strange request: spend a week watching their kids in an ancient Gothic mansion miles outside the city. The house is massive. Beautiful. Creepy. And haunted.
Inspired by The Haunting of Hill House, this slow-burning horror story follows Alyssa as her normal life spirals into the paranormal. What begins as a lucrative babysitting job turns into something far more terrifying-because not all children are innocent, and not all mysteries are as simple as they seem...
And this is just the beginning.

May mga pangyayaring pilit nating kinakalimutan, ngunit sila mismo ang bumabalik-bitbit ang bangungot na iniwan nila sa ating isipan. Sa isang lumang bahay na ngayon ay tahimik ngunit puno ng alaala, isang lihim ang patuloy na nagkukubli.

Minsan, nakaupo ito sa tabi mo, nakangiti, at may pangalang kilala mo. Ito ang simula ng katapusan ng katahimikan.Complete
