If your house starts feeling creepy, if birds flee your house, if the dead seem to move, get the F OUT!

Adrienne is out of luck, money and a place to live so when she inherits an house she goes there at once. Sure the house seems creepy, locals thinks it is haunted, and her unknown great aunt´s family were all slaughtered there....yes get the F OUT Adrienne!

The houses is filled with messages like your family is dead....no mirrors!...light a candle on Friday. But who cares about that. Oh you should care Adrienne, you should care.

Things get darker and darker, until they are so dark there is no way to escape anymore. It is just Adrienne and her cat and whatever there is in that house.

I enjoyed it. It starts of with not much happening, then it gets a bit eerie, and then it gets creepy and scary.

There's something wrong with Ashburn House...

The ancient building has been the subject of rumours for close to a century. Its owner, Edith, refused to let guests inside and rarely visited the nearby town.

Following Edith's death, her sole surviving relative, Adrienne, inherits the property. Adrienne's only possessions are a suitcase of luggage, twenty dollars, and her pet cat. Ashburn House is a lifeline she can't afford to refuse.

Adrienne doesn't believe in ghosts, but it's hard to ignore the unease that grows as she explores her new home. Strange messages have been etched into the wallpaper, an old grave is hidden in the forest behind the house, and eerie portraits in the upstairs hall seem to watch her every movement.

As she uncovers more of the house's secrets, Adrienne begins to believe the whispered rumours about Ashburn may hold more truth than she ever suspected. The building has a bleak and grisly past, and as she chases the threads of a decades-old mystery, Adrienne realises she's become the prey to something deeply unnatural and intensely resentful.

Only one thing is Ashburn's dead are not at rest.
