Incidents Around the House
Description
In a house that should feel safe, eight-year-old Bela is visited each day by “Other Mommy,” a presence that asks the same unsettling question: can she go inside Bela’s heart? When the answer begins to carry consequences, horrifying incidents escalate from frightening interruptions to threats that reach beyond Bela—testing the strength of her family and the fragile trust holding them together. As Other Mommy grows bolder and the home itself seems to turn against them, Bela must navigate not only supernatural terror, but also the cracks forming in her parents’ marriage. Told with the immediacy and vulnerability of a child’s perspective, this wholly unique horror story explores love, fear, and the terrifying cost of what we refuse to say—before it’s too late.
