After having a nervous breakdown, a rock singer has to spend some time in hospital. A private nurse is hired, and with her he buys a new house, a fantastic house in the country. The nurse, Sheila, can't remember the first years of her life, but this house seems strangely familiar to her. Also, there is this strange old woman who claims that Sheila's real name is Margaret. People who cause Sheila pain or who try to tell her the real story of what happened in this house, they die in strange ways: Tanya, the girlfriend of the singer, and the Library woman who wants to give her some newspaper articles. Can Sheila find out the truth behind all this and can she escape the house that possessed once and wants to possess once more?—Lukas Fichtinger <[email protected]>

Synopsis

Gary needs a vacation from his rock-star career. Sheila is the beautiful nurse he takes along. A super-modern huge redwood, concrete, and glass home is the stage. A home that has a mind all to its own. It can see, hear, and make anything happen. You won't be able to move from your seat from fear that the supernatural effects could be real. Filmed entirely on location in Rancho Santa Fe California and at universal studios; this 1981 NBC movie of the week is a must see. Very rare and difficult to find. Doesn't that make it even better?!!
