Mainly Carolanne and her mother. Tangina plays a huge part. It didn't really conform to Horror--it was horror. An evil spirit...steals a little girl to make the unrestful spirits of those whose graves her dad and co. built the neighborhood on--follow him in death. That's pretty scary in and of itself. But the idea behind that is scarier--that the dead can take people from the living world and do whatever they want.
