Don't Knock Twice

In the mist‑laden hills of rural Wales, a reclusive old house holds more than ancient stone—its silence hints at stories that have never been spoken aloud. When a curious young woman, Jess, steps inside, she unintentionally awakens a lingering presence that has waited for someone to disturb its slumber. The atmosphere drips with an uneasy blend of rustic charm and looming dread, setting a tone that feels both intimate and unsettling, as if the very walls are listening.

Seeking refuge from the unseen threat, Jess turns to the one person she has long tried to repair a bond with: her estranged daughter, Chloe. Their reunion in the secluded countryside is fraught with the weight of past hurts and unspoken apologies, yet the promise of a fresh start offers a fragile hope. Alongside Jess’s supportive husband, Ben, the small family attempts to carve out a peaceful life, only to discover that the past can echo loudly in the most tranquil of settings.

The film’s mood is a slow‑burning descent into a world where folklore and personal history collide. Shadows move with purpose, and the rural landscape becomes a character in its own right—beautiful, isolated, and capable of concealing ancient unease. As the mother and daughter grapple with their fractured relationship, a lingering sense of danger hovers, hinting that the old house’s secret is not easily left behind. The story invites viewers to wonder what lies just beyond the next knock, and whether the ties that bind can survive the darkness that follows.
