The Synopsis

Picking up 36 years after the original, an unexpected family tragedy prompts the Deetz family to return home to Winter River. Lydia’s past comes back to haunt her, after her rebellious teenage daughter, Astrid, uncovers the mysterious model town in the attic–opening a portal to the afterlife! 

As both realms begin falling into chaos, a certain demon’s name is read three times and his second reign of terror begins!
