Dunstable is a small rural town in southern New Hampshire. It is a town that people go to retire or move their families to get out of the larger surrounding cities. One vacant lot on Main Street, number 396, has sat empty since the previous occupant's daughter hung herself from the home's barn rafter. Now a new family has arrived with a key to unlock three-ninety-six one more time. The Lewis family. Wrought with issues of alcohol abuse and mental health issues, David Lewis thinks this house offers his family a chance to rebuild. He's clean and ready to start over. Jenna, his wife, is apprehensive of her husband's promises but has convinced herself to give the marriage one last try for their daughter, Aubrey. On the first evening of unpacking when the lights are turned down and Aubrey is sent to bed, the house awakens. The allure of Aubrey's innocence is too much for the house to ignore. It doesn't want her dead, it want's Aubrey as their own. The hope of a second chance for the Lewis family is quickly diminishing as the horrors of the days grow in magnitude. Jenna Lewis questions if she wants this life at all, not just with David but also if she has had enough with her daughter. Jenna blames Aubrey for cementing her in a life of motherhood, deep down she never wanted. 396 thrives from the chaos and the puppet it has turned Aubrey Lewis into and soon all the occupants of 396 will belong to the house.
