THE LODGERS is a classic gothic ghost story telling the haunting story of orphaned teenage twins who reside on a crumbling family estate in 1920s rural Ireland. Though isolated, Rachel and Edward are not alone – for they share the house with sinister unseen entities that have three strict rules: To be in bed by midnight; never allow anyone to cross the threshold; and never permanently leave the house. Failure to abide by these rules will unleash the wrath of those who reside in the basement – The Lodgers. However, when the arrival of a troubled war veteran encourages a sexual awakening in Rachel and a confrontation with Edward, she realises that she will have to fight alone to escape the family curse that has long haunted them.
