Plots: A realtor and his wife and children are summoned to a mansion, which they soon discover is haunted, and while they attempt to escape, he learns an important lesson about the family he has neglected. Realtor workaholic Jim Evers and his wife and business partner Sara gets a call late one night from mansion owner Edward Gracey, who is looking to sell his property. Smelling the biggest deal of their career, Jim, Sara and their two children pay a visit to the mansion, located on a remote bayou. A torrential thunderstorm of mysterious origin strands the Evers family in the old mansion with the brooding, eccentric Gracey, his mysterious butler, Ramsley, and a variety of residents both seen and unseen. At first Jim scoffs at Gracey’s stories about ghosts and hauntings, until he unearths the mystery of the mansion and finds that his wife Sara has unexpected connections to its haunted past! Under the guise of a happy family vacation, workaholic real-estate agent Jim Evers drags his wife Sara and their two children to the warm Louisiana bayou in what appears to be a lucrative business deal. Jim, of course, secretly hopes to put on the market a gloomy old villa. As a result, the Evers spend the night at the palatial estate as guests of Master Gracey, the cryptic proprietor, and Ramsley, his cadaverous butler. However, there’s more to the creepy house than meets the eye. After all, the entire manor oozes with blood-chilling supernatural manifestations. But first things first. Now that the Evers have set foot in the spooky Gracey Manor, will they ever escape from the haunted mansion?
