Review Detail

David, Karen, and Emily are driving home and they almost crash into a car. Instead of hitting a car. They hit the side railing on the road to a cliff. The car is hanging into the cliff as Emily and Karen get out. As Karen holds her daughter in tears, the car falls over the cliff with Emily's father still inside. A few years later Karen, Emily, and Emily's little brother Navin move to Karen's great grandfather Silas's house. As they explore the house Emily discovers an amulet in a room full of her grandfather's inventions. When she finds it she puts it on and walks away. Later at night time everybody was together in a room. Suddenly they hear a loud crash in the basement. Karen goes down to explore and tells her 2 kids to stay at the top of the stairs. After a few moments of her being down there they hear her scream. They rush downstairs and see the lantern she was holding on the ground and a door slowly closing behind something. They decide to go through the doors and what's behind the door will change their lives forever.


Emily is the older sibling, she tries to hide emotions but they can slip out in a way nobody else notices. She always takes the lead and fights for what she believes in, no matter how crazy it is. Navin is shy but tries to be just as good as Emily and it shows. Just like his sister, he tries to hide emotions but it spills out in a way that people would consider weak and pathetic. Karen is a great mother and tries her best to fight for her children, she's also very strong mentally, raising her kids all on her own even after her husband died. Silas was a very smart inventor and just smart overall. He is also very loving and trusts his gut, no matter how crazy and unexpected it might be. The dad dies in the beginning but just from that bit you can see how much he cared for his daughter and wife.
