The house next door holds a terrifying secret… For as long as Claire Anderson can remember, the house next door to hers has been vacant. When the last owner passed away, the house fell into major disrepair. She was beginning to grow accustomed to the neglected little house next door. But now the house appears to hold a darkness... Her new neighbor, David Greer, is attractive, middle-aged, and friendly. At least that's what Claire's mom, Jasmine, thinks, but Claire can’t ignore the bad vibe she gets from him. Maybe it's because she's not used to having a neighbor, or maybe it's because her mom seems to have a thing for him. Then again, it could also be the strange, creepy looks he gives her. Claire isn't one hundred percent sure why David makes her feel uneasy, but she is determined to find out before he gets too close to her mother. Can Claire figure out what David is hiding from behind the walls of his decrepit new home before someone falls victim to the darkness within?**
