Synopsis/Details
After escaping a controlling ex, Rebecca rents a room in an old boarding house, hoping for a fresh start. The house, run by the eccentric Helen, seems like the perfect refuge-- strange but quiet. Yet, Rebecca soon becomes aware of an unsettling presence. Noises from the locked room next door stir her paranoia, and she can't shake the feeling that she's being watched.
When Michael, a charming but mysterious man claiming to be the ex-boyfriend of the house's previous tenant, Ashley, shows up, Rebecca is torn. He's kind, but there's something off about him. As she digs deeper into Ashley's life, Rebecca uncovers Ashley's past as a call girl known as "Twisted Doll," who had her own paranoia about the room next door. Could Ashley have known too much? Or worse, was she the victim of something far darker inside the house?
With her fears mounting, Rebecca's suspicions shift to Ben, a reclusive professor across the hall. His cryptic conversations and odd behavior hint at a deeper connection to the house's dark history.
As Rebecca gets closer to the truth, her world unravels. She confronts Helen, only to learn that the landlady's warm façade hides a deep-seated jealousy and obsession with young women. As the truth of Ashley's disappearance slowly emerges, Rebecca realizes that she's next in line and her fight for survival has only just begun.
