On October 9, 2006, Kristi Rey and her husband Daniel are killed by her demon-possessed sister Katie, who then abducts Kristi's one-year-old son, Hunter. Text states that Katie and Hunter's whereabouts remained unknown.
In November 2011, Alex Nelson lives in suburban Henderson, Nevada with her father Doug, mother Holly, and little brother Wyatt. Alex and her boyfriend Ben discover their new neighbor's son, Robbie, hiding in their family treehouse. The next day, Robbie's mother falls ill and is taken to the hospital, leaving Robbie, who begins mentioning an invisible friend named Toby, in the care of the family. Over the next few days, many supernatural occurrences begin to take place.
The activity soon becomes violent; a chandelier falls from the ceiling and almost lands on Alex. One night, Alex notices several cars parked outside of Robbie's house and goes to investigate, but flees after being confronted by a strange woman. Later, Robbie draws a green symbol on Wyatt's back, which Alex later discovers is associated with witchcraft and demonic possession. Robbie takes Wyatt to his house and when Alex chases after him she meets Robbie's mother, revealed to be Katie. Then the knife that disappeared almost kills Doug. Wyatt later confides in Alex that Katie told him he was adopted, like Robbie, and that his birth family needs him. Later Wyatt, while taking a bath, is pulled underwater in the bathtub by an unseen force, he rises in an apparent trance. Later that night, Wyatt goes into Alex's room and levitates her while she sleeps. The next day, Wyatt refers to himself as "Hunter", telling Alex it is his true name.
