Storyline

When an anxious yet evasive family of four comes to town and rents a house from Delia, Melinda's visions of mud and facelessness convince her they're being haunted. Ned's interest in daughter Katie enables Melinda to gain more information towards their bloody ghost's identity, visions of a rejected girl, and the family's reasons for being on the run.
