Synopsis:

Rosalie is a young girl that lives with her father and brother in a dilapidated old mansion next to a cemetery. Alicianne is hired as a nanny for Rosalie, as the girl's mother has died under mysterious circumstances. Rosalie seems to be a bit eccentric, as she visits the cemetery during the night and feeds cats to zombies. She also wiggles objects with her thoughts, makes jack o'lanterns turn around in place, and summons up living scarecrows. Despite the family's 'don't ask, don't tell' policy with Rosalie, Alicianne begins to have suspicions as gory murders ensue around Halloween. It all leads up to a zombified showdown as family secrets unfold.

Alicianne is a pretty young girl who is hired to be a full time caretaker and companion for young Rosalie Nordon, whose mother has recently passed away. Rosalie's household also consists of her father and brother, and the family lives in a large house, located in a heavily wooded area.On her way to the Nordon house for the first time, Alicianne meets an elderly neighbor, the somewhat daffy Mrs. Whitfield. She warns Alicianne about the strange ways of the Nordon clan, and when Alicianne finally arrives at the house, she finds out why the Nordons have a shady reputation. Mr. Nordon is a grouchy old man with a bad attitude; at the dinner table, he tells a story about a group of boy scouts who died of food poisoning, laughing at how the young boys accidentally added a poisionous ingredient to their dinner and died agonizing deaths. Rosalie laughs at the story, too; she is an unpleasant little girl who is easily angered. Len, the older brother, is mostly silent and awkward.Soon after Alicianne's arrival, she begins to notice other strange things. Whenever Rosalie gets angry or upset, things seem to move and take on a life of their own. Rosalie spends a lot of time at the grave of her mother, which is in a nearby cemetery. Eventually Alicianne begins to realize something even more sinister; Rosalie has telekinetic abilities, which she uses to reanimate corpses from the local cemetery. She sends the zombies to do her bidding, and as a reward, she feeds them things like small animals.Rosalie steps up her revenge a notch when she confronts the nosy Mrs. Whitfield. First the zombies make off with Mrs. Whitfield's dog, then the next night they come for her, terrorizing her before mutilating her in her basement.Rosalie also exacts revenge on the gardener that her father employs; it seems as if the man has stolen some of her mother's jewelry, and Rosalie thinks that he has murdered the woman as well. Rosalie uses her telekinesis to animate a shotgun and fire on the man, killing him.Alicianne begins to catch on to Rosalie's abilities, but not before she, too, has angered the child by appearing to take an interest in her older brother. Rosalie kills her father and then sends her zombies in pursuit of Alicianne and Len. The two of them flee to a nearby wooden mill, where the zombies surround the structure and try to break in. Eventually Len is pulled through the floorboards and presumably eaten, while Alicianne tries to defend herself as best she can. She brings a stop to the zombies by killing Rosalie with an ax when she tries to enter the mill.

A newly-hired housekeeper in a remote area is alarmed to discover that her boss's eleven-year-old daughter is using her supernatural powers to take revenge on the people she holds responsible for her mother's death, with the aid of her flesh-eating zombie 'friends'...
