Day portrays both the vulnerability and fierceness of a woman on the brink and struggles to shield her family from her internal demons and the literal ones invading their home.
Glenn Close portrays Alberta, Ebony’s mother, with a mix of flamboyance and fervor that only Close can deliver.

McLaughlin's Nate displays a growing resentment that puts tension to the family dynamics, while Singleton's Shante portrays the innocence and terror of a child in a haunted home.
Anthony B. Jenkins, as Andre, is the youngest son who brings a silent strength to his role because his character is often at the center of the haunting activities.
