What are houses haunted by?
This is a fascinating combination of supernatural, family drama, and thriller. I did not expect it to go that way at all. It ended with more hope than I had thought possible. The stories of the individual families were complicated and painful. And this is more than just a haunted house story, but maybe it is just a haunted house story.
