The film had its world premiere on March 10, 2014, at South by Southwest and stars Morgana OReilly as a woman sentenced to house arrest in a potentially haunted house.

Kylie is further frustrated when Miriam calls a radio talk show and says that her house is haunted. After a disembodied hand grabs her ankle in the basement, Kylie becomes convinced that an intruder is in the house. Amos, responding to an alert from her ankle monitor after it reports tampering, takes Miriams suggestion of a haunting seriously, much to Kylies annoyance. Amos promises to return with ghost hunting equipment and perform a thorough examination of the house for free. When Kylie expresses continued skepticism, Amos chides her for having a closed mind.After a series of unexplained experiences, including repeatedly finding the same animatronic teddy bear in several rooms and it attacking her, Kylie comes to believe that there may be a ghost in the house. Dennis, a social worker assigned to Kylie, becomes concerned with what he believes to be possible delusions in both Miriam and Kylie. After reviewing footage from security cameras, Amos does not believe her reports and accuses her of lying. However, once Graeme reveals to Kylie that their home was one once a halfway house and the site of a horrific murder, Amos once again becomes interested. As they investigate further, they discover evidence of the crime, including an orthodontic retainer. During a visit, a blackout occurs, and Dennis is attacked by an unknown assailant. The police are skeptical of Miriams insistence that a ghost is responsible, but they do not push any further. ........
