He lives there with only, Mother, who is an erratic and paranoid recluse. She starves him and frequently locks him in closets or the basement cellar out of fears that he may eventually grow stronger and harm her. He has never been outside and no one has ever come over to the foreboding house and he spends his days in the dusty abandoned rooms talking to Timmy, his very old marionette doll. With Mother’s abuse, he is ragged and pale just as she is and takes on a frightening form. As Simon wanders the upper floors of the house alone, he is increasingly unnerved by someone moving his things. Sounds on the floors above in the night begin to fill him with dread and he finds it difficult to be in his room. To his horror, each night at the stroke of nine o’clock upon the grandfather clock, Mother begins to shut off electrical power to the upper floors to put him into his bed. In that darkness that crawls through the suffocating corridors when the clock tolls the two o'clock hour, something begins to open his closet door from within. Over time, the mood of the house changes, the boy changes, and terrible things will happen to everyone who resides within the walls of the old beast. Trapped in an ever deepening hole of madness, terror, and trickery, the innocent boy and ultimately a detestable man, one day discovers that the thing that has been watching him has had plans for him all along.The Goblin is a terrifying spiral into darkness that will leave you pleasantly stunned.
