Jen Noonan's father thinks a move to a new house is the key to salvation, but to everyone who has lived there in that house before, it is a portal to pure horror. After her alcoholic mother's death, Jen's father cracked. He dragged Jen to a dilapidated old manor on the shore of New Jersey to start their new lives, but Jen can tell that the place has an unhappy history. She can feel it the same way she can feel her anger flowing out of her, affecting the world in strange ways she can't explain. But the house is more than just a creepy old estate. It's got a chilling past, and the more Jen discovers its secrets, the more the house awakens.
