The house has mad, impossible architecture, such as a fireplace which looks like it was dropped into place from a height, angled windows and doors, and a hallway which leads nowhere and dead ends with the walls, ceiling and floor coming to a point. ![]() A scriptwriter for horror movies, Matthew Wilde rents a house in a rural town and brings his family there for a summer getaway.
