SYNOPSIS

'They're  here', -- seeming almost whimsical at first, playing stack-the-
chair games in  the  Freelings  kitchen.  Then  things  turn  darker.  A
storm  erupts, a tree attacks and little Carol Anne Freeling is whisked
into a spectral void. As her family confronts horrors galore  and  fights
to  bring  the  youngster  back,  something  else  is  here  too:  a new
benchmark in Hollywood ghost stories.
