In 1963, a quiet seashore community becomes the focus of an intense police dragnet when Thomas Lepp gunned down three New Jersey state troopers. Artis Weyland, inspector with the High Crimes Division, leads the man-hunt for the man suspected of brutally killing his wife, Emma, and her son, Charlie. On this night, the dead will speak. Nearly fifty years later, Allen and Jennifer Cherones, along with their son, Carl, have purchased a two-story house through their good friend and realtor, Ronald Avery. To help fix it up, Allen turns to his brother, Doug, and together the three set out to turn it into a dream home. “You’ve never heard of Thomas Lepp? He’s this towns own version of the Jersey Devil.” What seems like a deal too good to be true turns into a real nightmare for the young Cherones family. They seek the help of their new neighbors, Dorothy and Roger Faustine, who help them unravel the home’s bloody past. When the ghostly threat becomes all too deadly, the family realizes the former residents of this house have never left and are now looking to reclaim The House Where Charlie Lived.
