Description

When Molly and Michael's family moves to a secluded house on the coast of North Carolina, they are forced to share their lives with their new stepsister, Heather. Heather is a troubled child, still grieving the loss of her mother in a tragic fire, and her behavior becomes increasingly erratic. Her new fascination with the overgrown graveyard behind their home, and a mysterious girl named Helen who supposedly died there long ago, fills Molly with a growing sense of dread. As Heather's connection to Helen deepens, Molly fears her stepsister is being drawn into a dangerous, spectral world, and that a chilling past is about to repeat itself.
