How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A low-budget supernatural haunting that trades jump scares for creeping dread, building its horror from the specific weight of a real historical atrocity. It's intimate and claustrophobic, letting the Moore House itself become the antagonist.
