In total disregard of the shocking DeFeo murders and the old mansion's horrible past, the unsuspecting Benson family moves into the infamous house on 112 Ocean Avenue in Amityville. However, the moment they set foot on their new property, death starts to surround them, and mysterious paranormal occurrences disturb the Bensons' peace. Little by little, as a new imaginary friend enters the picture, ghostly apparitions start to appear in the dark home's video surveillance system, and the already troubled father, Douglas, is on the verge of a nervous breakdown. Now, the Bensons face a fate worse than death. Can they survive the Amityville haunting?
