After the sudden death of their father, Kate, Jesse, and adopted sister Sookan move with their mother from Brooklyn to a dilapidated farmhouse. Sookan's premonitions and her terror of the house's wallpaper lead the siblings to uncover the house's secrets and treasures. This ghost story provides some not-too-scary chills, but also some unintentional mysteries, as too many loose ends remain unraveled.
