"Well, it's gonna sound worse than it was," the realtor says as she prepares to unload the awful truth behind the home's history. As the truth is unveiled, that line the realtor fed the couple is a total crock. Double homicide is exactly as horrible as it sounds. Initially, the realtor shares that a young girl murdered her infant and her father before ending her own life. Once the strange neighbor Renner (Michael Shannon) enters the couple's lives, he expounds on the horrifying details. The patriarch, Robert Solomon (Justin Matthew Smith) sexually assaulted his own daughter Anna (Addy Miller) on multiple occasions following the death of his wife. Renner reveals that Anna had a brother and their mother died after complications with childbirth. Renner shares that the boy was blamed for his mother's death.
The realtor later informs Sara that Renner is actually Anna's still-living brother. That seems like a detail she should have divulged when selling the home. Renner changed his name and moved close to home to grieve in solitude. Sara asks Renner if there were other babies. In a strange twist, he reveals there were actually three babies. Confused, Sara asks why the other two weren't in the reports. But then the unsettling realization comes to mind that they still remain inside the home. Sara comes to believe that they're hiding behind the wardrobe and that the boys have been stealing their possessions.
