PlotKelly and Ben are a young couple who move into a suburban home, excited to start their lives together. Trouble begins when they notice strange occurrences around the house, starting with minor anomalies and progressing to more alarming events that suggest a supernatural presence. The couple soon discovers that their home seems to be haunted by a malevolent entity. Desperate for answers, Ben admits he was part of a university experiment that attempted to summon a ghost, an experiment that involved his colleague Patrick. The presence haunting their home appears to be a result of that experiment gone wrong.
As the eerie events escalate, Kelly and Ben try to get help from Patrick, who has some knowledge about the entity. Their attempts to dispel the apparition become increasingly desperate as the malevolent force grows stronger and more aggressive. The tension intensifies as the couple's relationship is tested, and their mental and physical safety are put at risk. Uncovering more about the entity's nature, they realize its roots are deeply entrenched in the experiment, leading them to confront the terrifying consequences of tampering with the supernatural.
