When Dani is brutally murdered at the remote house that she and her husband Ted are renovating, everyone suspects a patient from the local mental health institution, where Ted is a doctor. Soon after the killing, the suspect is found dead. 

A year later, Ted is living in the half-renovated house with his new girlfriend, Yana, who is unsettled living there, believing Dani’s ghost haunts the house. It’s then that Dani’s blind twin sister, Darcy, pays them an unexpected visit. Darcy, a psychic and collector of haunted items, has arrived believing that there was more to her sister’s murder than people know, and she has brought with her the most dangerous item from her cursed collection to help her exact revenge.

Caveat director Damian McCarthy once again proves his skills as a connoisseur of fear.
