Would you stay in a haunted house for more than one night?
 
Would you live in a place where ghostly things keep happening? Where a cellar door you know you locked the night before is always open the following morning?  Where hushed whimpering is heard?  Where white shadows steal through the darkness?  Where the presence of evil is all around you?
 
Would you?  Should you?
 
The Caleighs did, but they had their reasons.  They should have known better though.  As the terror mounts, they begin to regret their decision.  As the horror rises, they realize their very lives are at risk....and so is their sanity.  For the secret of Crickley Hall is beyond all nightmares.
