 With casual indifference, time slowly erases reminders of the past. Old roads, once traveled regularly, are abandoned and their destinations may be forgotten. When Clara and her family move into a small home in rural Hinsdale, New York, they are eager to get away from the chaos of city life... but soon learn that their new, quiet home is full of disturbances. They hear the inexplicable sound of ritualistic chanting coming from somewhere deep within the woods, and neighbors tell tales of ghosts that roam the forest. In time, the family realizes that the peace of "life in the country" is merely an illusion, and the threat of death is very real. A local psychic explains that the unquiet dead are being drawn to the house, and to a gruesome secret hidden in the storage crawlspace.
