Apparitions? Evils? Corruptions?
A governess takes a position at a remote country estate to care for two orphaned children, only to suspect they are being haunted by malevolent spirits. As eerie events escalate, she becomes consumed by the belief that the children are possessed by the ghosts of former servants. This haunting psychological horror blends atmosphere and ambiguity in a chilling tale of innocence corrupted and madness creeping in.
