Altar Plot Synopsis:
The Hamilton family moves into a large country house on the Yorkshire Moors to supervise its restoration from a dilapidated B&B to the original Victorian grandeur. When wife, mother, and renovation expert Meg Hamilton first loses her London team after an accident, then a local Yorkshire team is too superstitious to continue, she's forced to carry on alone. The discovery of a secret attic room, a Rosicrucian mosaic, a bricked-up root cellar, and many other unexplainable events gradually convince Meg, her husband Alec, and their children Penny and Harper, that they're renting not only the house, but also its original Victorian owners who died 150 years ago. But before they can escape, the house and its former occupants force them to spend one last, terrifying night under its roof.
Synopsis / Plot Summary: A young family move to an isolated house which the wife has been hired to restore, only to discover that the previous owner is reputed to have murdered his wife.
