PlotA young family moves into a new home, only to begin experiencing strange and terrifying events. When Dalton, one of the sons, inexplicably falls into a coma, his mother Renai and father Josh search for an explanation, feeling increasingly helpless as their child's condition remains undiagnosed by doctors. The supernatural occurrences within the house grow more frequent and menacing, with Renai witnessing apparitions and hearing disturbing voices through the baby monitor. The couple struggles to understand if the incidents are linked to Dalton's condition or if their house is haunted.
In search of answers, the parents eventually learn that something much more sinister than a simple haunting is at play when Elise Rainier, a gifted psychic, reveals that Dalton has a special ability that has left him vulnerable to the malevolent entities from a realm called The Further. As they delve deeper into this mysterious and dangerous otherworldly dimension, the stakes become higher in the race to save Dalton's soul from the dark forces that aim to trap him there and use his body as a vessel in the living world. The family must confront their deepest fears and withstand the perverse terror of the spirits that dwell in The Further before it's too late.
