Martin does not sleep anymore during the night. His older step sister Rebecca who lives alone is summoned by the social assistant.

Years after the mysterious and gruesome death of their father Paul in his textile factory, not much seem to have changed for his mentally disturbed wife Sophie and Paul's young son, Martin. As a matter of fact, Sophie's condition clearly gets worse, as her increasingly persistent conversations with her familiar mutinous demons within the darkness' embrace, threaten Martin's safety, who more than ever, needs his older step-sister, Rebecca. In Sophie's mind, the entity that haunts her is palpably distinct and inextricably intertwined with her existence, nevertheless, to Martin and Rebecca, things are not so obvious. But soon, the fleeting but dreadful sounds along with the faint traces of otherworldly manifestations will teach the siblings that terrors do exist when the lights are out.
In a textile factory, an employee named Esther encounters a silhouette of a woman when the lights are off, but cannot see it when the lights are on. She warns her boss Paul.

Rebecca also tells the official that Paul was her stepfather, and that her real father ran away when she was a child..
