Synopsis

An  old house a mysterious locked room a terrifying secret. Elements that  make  a  horror  movie  memorably  chilling  get  a  taut,  spooky reworking  in  Don't  Be  Afraid of the Dark. Kim Darby and Jim Hutton
star  as  Sally  and  Alex,  young  marrieds  who  inherit  a  crumbling
mansion.  Despite  warnings  to  leave  well  enough  alone in her new
home, Sally unlocks  the   mysterious   room,   opens   a   bricked-up
fireplace  --  and  unleashes a horde of hideous, whispering, murdering mini-demons only she can see and hear. Alex thinks  she's  imagining things.  We  know  she  isn't.  And we know Sally should be very, very afraid of the dark!
