The Manor sees Judith (Barbara Hershey) move into a care facility after experiencing a stroke. And while it’s difficult for her to say goodbye to her family, Judith finds it even more challenging to shake the feeling that something sinister is going on at her new domicile. She sees and hears things in the night. Her belongings go missing without explanation, and the administration keeps the entrance to the building locked. Could her concerns be part of the aging process, or is something seriously wrong?

The Manor stars Barbara Hershey, Bruce Davison, Nicholas Alexander, Jill Larson, and Fran Bennett.
