Dr. Louis Creed, having just moved to Maine with
his wife and two children, is heartbroken when
he finds that his daughter's beloved cat has
been hit by a truck and killed. Thankfully, a
strange, elderly neighbor called Jud knows a
secret that may spare the young girl's tears. He
takes the dead cat to an ancient Indian burial
ground that lies hidden in the surrounding
hilltops; and when he buries the feline there,
it comes back to life a few days later. But
Louis can't be trusted with the secret, and,
despite strong warnings that something horrible
will happen, he uses the power of the burial
ground to bring his son back from the dead --
after the child is killed the same way the
family cat was.
