Het rustige leven van de familie Feeling wordt verstoord door geesten. Op het eerste gezicht lijken de geesten vriendelijk te zijn: ze verplaatsen objecten als amusement voor het gezin. Maar dan worden ze gemeen en beginnen ze het gezin te terroriseren. Ze gaan zelfs zover dat ze hun dochter kidnappen.
Nee, helaas is Poltergeist nog niet beschikbaar op Netflix in Nederland.
