What happens
This House Has People in It is a 2016 American found footage analog horror short film directed by Alan Resnick and produced by his production company, AB Video Solutions, with Williams Street. It premiered as part of Adult Swim's Infomercials series on March 15, 2016. Framed as surveillance footage inside a suburban home, the 11-minute special follows parents Ann and Tom as they attempt to save their daughter Madison, who is sinking through the floor, while their son Jackson's birthday party takes place outside. It was written by, produced by, and starred members of the Baltimore comedy collective Wham City, including Resnick, Robby Rackleff, Dina Kelberman, Ben O'Brien, and Cricket Arrison. A link at the end of the film led viewers to an alternate reality game (ARG) surrounding the film and created by Kelberman. The film received critical acclaim, particularly for its unsettling tone and its transmedia component. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
