The Beldham is a 2025 American horror film directed by Angela Gulner, starring Patricia Heaton and Corbin Bernsen. Running 85 minutes, it follows a new mother confronting a sinister ancestral force inside her own home — a creature that has claimed lives across generations and now sets its sights on her newborn.
What is The Beldham about?
Exhausted and emotionally raw after childbirth, a young woman retreats to her family's old house hoping for quiet and recovery. Almost immediately, strange sounds, shifting shadows, and unexplained incidents signal that something malevolent has waited long inside those walls. As her grip on sleep and reason loosens, she begins uncovering family secrets that point to a recurring horror stretching back through her bloodline. With her infant's life hanging in the balance, she must figure out whether the danger is real, imagined, or something worse — an inherited curse that chose her long before she ever moved in. The film builds its dread methodically, keeping the supernatural presence just at the edge of visibility.

Corbin Bernsen appears in a pivotal supporting role.
