Desperate, Brandon's parents seek answers from Lee Yagar, a local who's warned people of the dangers lurking at the old Brown place. But, Lee's suggestion that Mary is involved in Brandon's abduction makes little sense. Mary's not been seen in decades and is presumed dead. But, is she? And is the house truly as abandoned as it appears to be? A disturbing, psychological horror driven by hate, fear, and every parent's worst nightmare.
