Synopsis: On their way home from a dramatics competition, Lisa and her friends are caught by a storm and take refuge in a deserted house. The house is strewn with the paraphernalia of a practiced magician. At first, Lisa is fascinated, then the fascination turns to horror. The phones go dead; doors slam shut; a ghostly hand creeps across the mantel. The tricks become more sinister. Lisa is sure it must all be an illusion, but what if the evil behind it is real?
