In a child's bedroom in a suburban Philadelphia home, Edward Benson is listening for footsteps on the stairs. The footfall Edward is waiting for will not be human.

But whatever it is that comes creeping up the stairs will have two qualities: it will be animated by a terrifying, diabolical force, and it will have only one intention - murder. If Edward Benson wants his daughter back, he will have to fight a battle no human has ever fought before. And he must win, for only the victor will return with his life - and his soul from the realms of dark, unspeakable evil. -
