Hiding the secret of the new habitat from his family, Ellison, the author of a bestselling series of the detective genre, moves with them to a small town, to the house where a chilling tragedy unfolded a year ago - all the residents were killed, except for the little girl who went missing. When checking in, the writer accidentally finds films in the attic of the house, which are the key to the secret of crime. The course of events has been revealed - more than one family has been killed, and each murder is associated with the previous one. Also, one child from each killed family went missing.

While he is passionate about his searches, his son Trevor is tormented by seizures and nightmares at night, and his daughter creates drawings with missing children and murder scenes. Finding a strange sign on the wall in the film, he seeks help in order to find out what this sign means. He is told a story about the evil spirit of the times of Babylon, Bagul, which feeds on the souls of children and thereby supports its existence.
