With her ailing grandmother, Lucy [Lowe], suffering with worsening symptoms of dementia, Anna moves home to look after her. Soon after, strange things begin happening. Though benign at first, events soon escalate into a nightmarish fight for life against a malevolent presence. She discovers the ordeal is linked to a dark family secret, a tragic past that’s haunted Anna her whole life…and Lucy’s fading memories could be the key to solving the mystery and surviving the nightmare.”
