The group parks down on the street rather than drive up the long driveway because they say they don't want the cops to notice. This seems kind of odd since wouldn't the cops notice a truck parked on the street near the abandoned mansion? But not to worry, when they get inside, they turn on the lights so.... yeah, they could have parked at the front door.
Things start out fun but turn creepy very quickly. One kid sees a photograph change, another sees a sheet on a chair change shape, and the phonograph starts after someone bumps into it. When someone gets injured, one of the girls decides to leave, but the front door won't open.
Here's a lesson for you kids. If you ever think that the surface of a mirror, or wall, or any solid item is not actually solid anymore, don't stick your freaking fingers into it. Find an inanimate object to test your theory.
There isn't anything new in this and it's average at best. Watch for the ridiculous scene where kids hear someone coming and try to hide, but leave the flashlight on the iphone on, which would give them a way in a dark room - or even a slightly shady room.
Also there is one line that I can't believe got into the film. Was the script wrong and no one noticed, or did the kid just mispronounce the word? I can't believe no one caught this. As the truck drives up to pick up the kids, one yells, "Here comes the calvary." It's cavalry, dumbass.
