Abbey Grace (Maggie McNabb) died in 1919 at age 9. In 1943 a young girl finds a wooden box shallowly buried on top of Abbey's grave. She takes the box, then goes home and murders her family. Didn't see that coming. We now jump to the present...same farm house in New Hamburg, Missouri. Ben (Jacob Hobbs) is a shut-in, deathly scared to go outside and of germs and dirt, thanks to his mother. His sister Stacey (Debbie Sheridan) was more fortunate and cares for Ben, going to town to fetch his coconut water. When Stacey discovers said box in basement, the expected haunting happens. We get a one sentence explanation at about a half hour into the movie and the rest follows.
The plot was repetitive. Ghost wants something returned. Our ghost can move objects, including the box, possesses people etc, but can't find a way to take the box back. Trying to ignore that, I didn't find the jump scares effective. The voice enhancer for the spirit was a cheap laugh. Debbie Sheridan was great as the sister, later she was a laugh with that constant neck creak. Amber Gallaway was unconvincing in her role. Jacob Hobbs was fairy decent, the bright spot of the film.
Guide: 1 quick distorted F-word. No sex or nudity.
