Sinopsis

Paul Milton, a dynamic young vicar, is successful at bringing folk back to the Church. Fresh from a South London triumph, he and his wife Sarah, an emotionally fragile English rose, head north to a new rural appointment.
 
However, the position is not what they expect. Soon after their arrival, Sarah becomes distant and oddly changed. Paul finds himself caught in a war between Olwen - a Celtic sorceress - and Julius Dodds, the church's implacable troubleshooter. Under pressure from both sides, Paul suffers a crisis of faith.
 
As the ancient ritual of All Saints' Eve approaches, Sarah disappears and Paul has to battle against Olwen and Dodds to save his wife from a fate too terrible to contemplate.

    In 1894, American writer Francis Marion Crawford  published the popular novel "The Upper Berth." "Mr Crawford's weird story of the Upper Berth is no doubt one of the best ghost stories we have had .... It is a novelty in the literature of supernatural. Crawford treats his subject a vigor and a realism that will make the flesh of ordinary reader creep and will stir the nerves even the most hardened and skeptical." Every now and again, the smell sea water permeates the air, as if the cabin had been flooded and never properly repaired. The porthole opens repeatedly in the night with no conceivable reason. And the last few passengers who have slept in the upper berth have run through the ship like men possessed to throw themselves into the ocean. Mr. Brisbane, resident of the lower berth, and the ship's captain wait up all night to get to the bottom of the mystery... and neither will ever sail on that boat again.

    Sophie and Joseph Argenton have survived the impossible… for now. But their escape from Northwood is short-lived. The sinister shadow that haunted their ancestral home survived, and has attached itself to Joseph's young cousin. Desperate, they travel to meet her father at Kensington, a long-abandoned mansion overlooking a dead town. The house offers a small hope: its original owner had dedicated her life to researching the monster that now possesses Elise. There's a chance that here they will find a way to kill the creature without harming the girl. 
    But Kensington has its own dangers, and once it has Sophie and Joseph within its grasp, it may never let them leave. 
    Trapped inside the ancient building's collapsing walls, Sophie and Joseph are forced to confront the horrors that hide within. Shrouded figures stalk them from the shadows. Whispers echo through the night. Unmarked graves dot the property. And the dead are not as restful as they seem…
