 The Dybbuk box has been in Jewish folklore since the 1600’s. It is a small box that was special built to trap and hold a demonic Dybbuk which is an evil sprit. If the box got into the wrong hands and the spirit in it was set free, all hell could break loose including someone susceptible being possess by the Dybbuk.

   Even though this is Jewish Folklore, there are real life cases of people having these boxes and they all had horrible things happen to the point that they had to get rid of the box usually by passing it on. They were too afraid to destroy it for fear of setting the Dybbuk free.

 Thus we have our story of a little girl who has her daddy buy her a box that fascinated her at a yard sale. When they took it home the bad luck began.

This movie will scare your socks off – guaranteed because it is based on a real life Dybbuk box case. If you are weak stay away from this one! If you love a good scare – this is your cup of tea!

****Excellent! (Ride In The Front First Class)!
