Summary

When Mitch first notices the small, mysterious handprints of a child on the glass door to his basement bedroom he is immediately suspicious. He attempts to dismiss the strangeness of this phenomenon until one night, what starts off as a frightening dream, turns into a horrifying reality as he meets the source of his suspicions. What follows is an ongoing series of events in the house that seem to be centered around a boy with bright yellow eyes.

I thought it had quite a few similarities to one of our very early episodes.
