A woman brings her family back to her childhood home, where she opens an orphanage for handicapped children. Before long, her son starts to communicate with an invisible new friend.
Shortly after moving into a new home, Laura begins to notice strange things. She starts to remember it was an abandoned orphanage. Her son soon makes a "friend." After her son goes missing(of course), she decides to play with the ghosts in the hope that they'll lead her to him. Along the way, she uncovers a grisly truth about the orphanage and her connection to the place.
The orphanage is a ghost story. The much is told to you upfront. The fun is in how this story develops. Little children are creepy and there is no exception in this film. I wouldn't call this a masterpiece, but it is a solid work of fiction.
Out of 10? 7

Violence? No
Explosions? No
