The Perry family's new house is perfect--except for the weird behavior of the neighbors, and that odd smell coming from a dark corner in the basement. It's a pity no one warned the family about the house. Now it's too late. Because the darkness at the bottom of the basement stairs is rising. Original.

Steve Nye's quiet life takes an unexpected turn when he receives a call from his mother. His father attacked her and has been committed to an asylum. The doctor says he's suffering from dementia. But Steve's father seems so calm, clear-eyed, and lucid when he whispers, ?I killed her?. Is it simply symptom of his father's delusion and madness?
If only Steve were so lucky?

BETWEEN HEAVEN AND HELL STANDS ONLY ONE THING...

THE HOUSE

Five strangers are about to discover that they share a dark bond. A haunted childhood. A shocking secret. A memory of the houses they lived in -- each one eerily identical to the next.

From the remote foothills of the west to the green lawns of sunny suburbia, they are returning -- to the past, to the unspeakable events they long to forget...to the house.

And their journeys are about to converge, in one terrifying challenge to confront their nightmares -- or be trapped inside them forever....
