Haunted Mansion

In the quiet town of New Orleans, Gabbie—a widowed doctor—relocates with her young son Travis to Gracey Manor, a sprawling Victorian estate she hopes to convert into a bed‑and‑breakfast. From the moment they step through the ornate doors, the house feels alive with whispers of another time, its elegant hallways and shadowed rooms humming with a presence that refuses to be ignored. The film settles into a moody, slightly gothic atmosphere where the line between comforting nostalgia and unsettling mystery is ever‑shifting, inviting viewers to feel the same uneasy anticipation that greets the new residents.

Realizing they cannot face the unseen forces alone, Gabbie and Travis call upon a colorful assemblage of paranormal specialists. Among them is Ben—a former astrophysicist whose scientific curiosity has turned into a personal obsession with the supernatural—joined by Father Kent, an exorcist priest whose faith is both a shield and a source of conflict, and Harriet, a psychic whose gifts are as tender as they are unsettling. Rounding out the team is Bruce, a historian whose encyclopedic knowledge of the mansion’s past provides the crucial context for the strange occurrences. Their interactions crackle with tension and camaraderie, each character bringing a distinct worldview that colors the investigation in equal parts skepticism, belief, and reverence for the unknown.

Together they explore the manor’s labyrinthine corridors, its hidden alcoves, and the lingering echo of long‑forgotten lives, all while trying to maintain a semblance of normalcy for Travis and preserve the dream Gabbie envisions for their new home. The film’s tone balances chilling dread with moments of quiet wonder, letting the audience taste the intoxicating allure of a house steeped in history while fearing what might stir from its depths. As the team delves deeper, the mansion becomes a character in its own right—beautiful, enigmatic, and ever‑present—promising that answers lie just beyond the next flickering candlelight.
