Gary Channing's transition into middle age has been rather uneventful so far. After twelve good years of marriage to his loving wife Sue and raising two kids, Gary's life has become something of a blur of rinse-and-repeat evenings watching the TV. However, Sue has organised for the two to spend a weekend in Hope Hall, a so-called haunted stately home where even the walls feel like they're watching you. Being fans of the paranormal themselves, Gary and Sue think they've seen everything, but that comfort quickly vanishes as soon as the couple arrives on the grounds. Plagued by visions and waking nightmares, Gary immediately feels at odds with the eerie hallways of Hope Hall, something which is only exacerbated when he finds himself talking to the wealthy architect of the building, Henry. Talking to the owner shouldn't be a problem, but Henry built Hope Hall back in 1840, and died thirty years after that. Offering Gary a haunting warning about his fate and purpose at the Hall, the ghost informs him that he'll be visited by even more apparitions over the coming months, all who will give him the insight he needs - in one form or another - for an impending battle between good and evil. Getting the rest of his family caught up in the mix, Gary's beliefs are brought into question as he falls head first into this fight for the souls of the dead.
