Claire e Patrick, ragazzi irlandesi, vanno in gita scolastica a Newgrande per assistere ad un singolare episodio: durante il solstizio d'inverno, infatti, il sole penetra da un'apertura dell'antichissimo monumento megalitico e ne illumina l'interno. Tutto sommato la giornata si prospetta noiosa, così i due decidono di movimentarle giocando un innocuo scherzo ai compagni. In questo modo, però, interferiscono con una millenaria magia e da quel momento vengono perseguitati da agghiaccianti sussurri e strani sogni, mentre un'ombra crudele li insidia sempre più da vicino. Perché il Male è fuggito dalla sua prigione e torna a minacciare la Terra.
