5. Ashes to Evil

Complete story — includes the ending

In October 2011, Amelia and Calvin Braddy move into a 19th-century house in Hampton, Tennessee. They are the parents of two young children, five-year-old Sarah and one-year-old Chelsea. One morning, Amelia hears noises and looks around but finds nothing that is causing it. Days later, the baseboard heater is mysteriously ripped off the wall in the girls' bedroom causing sparks and smoke. After the firefighters come, one of them tells Amelia that a mother accidentally caused a fire that killed her and her three children a decade earlier. Sarah then begins talking to "imaginary friends" who quickly scare her, which turn out to be the spirits of the children who were killed. Calvin encounters the entity while he's alone in the house but keeps it to himself. It later returns sucking the life out of Calvin while he's sleeping. After several more incidents, Amelia calls paranormal investigator Rob Phillips who lives in nearby Jonesborough, Tennessee, to help them. He and his assistant Kathy Shephard uncover that the house was once a halfway house for male prisoners in the 1920s and a man was shot outside on the porch. One day, while Calvin and Amelia pack up to leave, the doors and windows slam and shut, trying to trap them. Luckily, Calvin and Amelia run out of the house to safety.
