DESCRIPTION:
(from Lifetime's press release) Harvard-educated lawyer Declan Fitzpatrick (O'Connell) impulsively gives up his comfortable life to buy Manet Hall, a newly restored plantation manor near New Orleans. Legend has it that the house is haunted, and, shortly after Declan moves in, he starts hearing voices and seeing seemingly inexplicable apparitions. Declan is also distracted by his undeniable attraction to Cajun local Lena Simone (Stamile), who grew up on the bayou with her grandmother, Odette (Dunaway), and who also has her own mysterious connection to the manor. Living in the house, Declan begins to have visions of events that took place in the mansion during centuries past. With the help of Odette, Declan and Lena realize that they are inextricably linked to Manet Hall and uncover a shocking secret that has been hidden for more than 100 years.
