"After a devastating loss, a father and son move into a quiet neighborhood, hoping for a fresh start. But as eerie events disrupt their new home, they begin to question whether the real danger comes from the house itself—or something far closer to home."
SYNOPSIS:
Andrés, a grieving widower, and his young son Simón move into a decaying 1950s-era house in a quiet neighborhood, hoping for a fresh start after the death of Elena, their wife and mother. But the house resists their presence. Doors slam unseen, objects move on their own, and Simón begins behaving strangely—speaking of invisible figures and insisting his mother still visits him. Andrés dismisses it as childhood trauma, until he too witnesses unexplainable phenomena: a rotting tree in the yard that seems to watch them, photographs flipping facedown overnight, and a basement with chains embedded in the walls.
As the disturbances escalate, Andrés uncovers hints that the house has a violent history—one that a secretive group, seems determined to keep hidden. Local neighbors whisper warnings, but their help comes with unsettling conditions. Simón grows more detached, torn between loyalty to his father and eerie whispers only he can hear. Andrés must unravel the truth before the house’s darkness consumes them both, but the line between supernatural terror and his own crumbling sanity blurs. Is the house truly haunted, or is grief distorting reality?
A chilling exploration of loss, parenthood, and the horrors we inherit, The New House builds dread through atmospheric tension, psychological unease, and the unshakable bond between a father and son trapped in a nightmare neither fully understands.
