A shy teenager accidentally kills a mocking peer, and his mother helps him hide in a spare room in their house. Problems arise when the mother goes for an operation and dies, and the house is sold to a new family, with the teen still living inside.

The Wood family doesn't know it. But the old house they've just bought is already occupied... by a psychopathic killer.
