Facing skepticism from friends and family and with the Blackwell house off limits, Turner turns to a new location to continue his quest for proof of the supernatural. Plagued by dreams of a missing girl named Sarah Baker (he connects these odd dreams to his experiences at the Blackwell house), Turner begins to dig. Turns out Sarah Baker was a victim in the “Lightfoot Serial Case” which left nearly 20 women dead. An isolated house in Florida served as the killing grounds decades ago and is still (somehow) serving as a rental property even after all the awfulness. Turner books himself some time at the place and things gradually get spooky. Phantom phone calls and knocks start things off, Turner hits the bourbon, the knocks grow in force and frequency, Turner gets spooked but toughs it out in hopes of figuring out some kind of purpose for the strange journey he’s been on. Turner is his usual likable self and the history at the house is a little more disturbing (what with the mutilation, violation and cannibalism of the victims) than the Blackwell backstory. This one does a fine job of towing that documentary/found footage line and Turner’s reaction to the “night 3” shenanigans may be one of the most realistic actions I’ve ever seen in a ghost film.
