When an out-of-town pair of husband and wife get in a vehicle accident, Clay takes it as a routine case. Soon, Clay\u2019s investigation leads him to Gingerbread House, a centuries-old abandoned mansion on the outskirts of the town. As he begins to look deeper into the history of the house, it becomes more and more difficult to get a sense of what is real and what is illusion.
