David is a businessman, who is struggling to handle his work pressure, while Ellen is an artist, who finds solace in her art. However, their peaceful life turns into a nightmare when they start experiencing strange and inexplicable phenomena in their new home.

The couple soon realizes that they are not alone in their apartment and that there is something dark and malevolent lurking in their midst that is gaining control of their lives. They seek help from a parapsychologist, Dr. Weber, who finds himself drawn into the mysterious and dangerous world of the supernatural.
