Trailer
The trailer is a thrilling one to say the least, and while it doesn't give too much away about if the room is haunted or magical, it seems as though Kate and Matt have a price to pay. Imagine a room that gave you want you wanted? One of the interesting parts of the trailer and the narrative is the couple trying for a child, after going through heartache twice before. Without thinking about the consequences, Kate decides to ask for a baby, and while that's great, we don't think that child, Shane, or his parents are going to live a normal life.
