LOGLINE:
The Johnson brothers and their girlfriends start an idyllic vacation at a newly renovated home. They had planned a peaceful getaway, with maybe a romantic surprise or two thrown in.

SYNOPSIS:
Brothers, Samson and Simon Johnson, and their girlfriends (Katlyn and Nina) start a romantic vacation at a newly renovated home. Each brother has a secret he brings with him. Little do the four know that the house also has a secret and has been expecting them.
Katlyn and Nina settle into the house.
Visions of a beautiful woman in white haunt Samson.
Simon searches for the perfect moment to ask Nina to marry him.
The house watches and waits.
Simon and Nina, celebrating their engagement, stumble into the basement and straight into the plans of the house. Unlocking a demon, the four must now fight for their lives and find a way out.
As the house comes alive, the four search, for a way to escape the demonic house and return the demon to the depths of hell from which it came.
Is Samson’s beautiful woman in white there to help them or is she in service to the demon? As Samson tries to find that out, Simon is gravely wounded. The need to escape the house becomes all the more critical.
The house holds the upper hand and will not let them leave. The house taunts them, and slowly picks them off one by one. As the house claims its sacrifices, who will have the strength and willpower to lock the demon back in its hell?
Will anyone leave the demon house alive?
This psychological thriller, in an homage to the Hammer Studio thrillers, will take the audience on a roller coaster ride as our two couples fight against the demon house and for their lives.
