A family of six living in the suburbs begins to suspect that killings of local residents are being committed by a demon after the mother's secretly possessed old friend visits. As three family members start to realize the threat and try to escape, it becomes too late as the demon has already marked them for death and begins hunting them down one by one. Paranormal activity is glimpsed in security camera footage in the trailer, which ends on a cliffhanger with someone being thrown around a dark room by the unseen demon. The film has a low budget and only requires the actors and their phones as props.

(Outline of what will be seen in the trailer.)
In the trailer you will see family members
starting to doubt each other and argue over
the fact that they don’t know who the one
behind all these killings is. You will see a bit
of paranormal activity on camera but
nothing too significant until the end of the
trailer where someone is thrown around a
room by the unseen paranormal demon.
The location is a dark house and some
outside scenes in a shopping centre. The
trailer ends on a cliffhanger.
2. Budget: the budget for the scenes is near
enough nothing as we are going to be using
the cameras provided to sort out all of the
footage.
Props: the only props needed in this are
the characters themselves and phones
which each of the actors will have.
