Synopsis

When Louise’s parents tragically pass away, she’s forced to return to her childhood home in Charleston, a place she desperately tried to escape. What awaits her isn't just grief, but a house overflowing with the peculiar remnants of her parents' lives – particularly her mother's unsettling collection of puppets and dolls. Compounding her discomfort is the unwelcome reunion with her estranged brother, Mark, who never left their hometown and harbors deep-seated resentment towards her success. Their shared task: prepare the house for sale. However, they soon discover that the house itself, steeped in family history and perhaps something far more sinister, has its own malevolent will. As unsettling events escalate and the true nature of their inherited home reveals itself, Louise and Mark must confront not only their traumatic past and fractured relationship but also the very real, terrifying possibility that some houses refuse to be sold, and some family secrets are best left undisturbed.

Critical Reception
