 Some people believe that ghosts are human spirits struggling with unfinished business, and that they may need help from the living in order to find peace among the dead. Others believe that ghosts can be inhuman spirits, which use us for very different reasons - to destroy all things sacred, and steal our souls. Jan knows that her seven-year-old son Cody is a lonely child, so she thinks nothing of it when he begins communicating with an imaginary friend. He seems happy. In time, however, Cody s personality becomes volatile. Jan fears that her son s friend is something beyond imagination when Cody confesses that he lives in a red box in a nearby cemetery. Feeling helpless and desperate to protect her son, Jan contacts a Native American shaman, who uses prayers and ancient rituals to help her battle with something far more dangerous than a ghost.
