At Stream Tracker, we take a look back at When the Lights Went Out (2012), a Hands‑on‑Yorkshire paranormal shocker set in 1974 where the Maynard family’s dream house quickly becomes a nightmare — a house already inhabited by the most violent poltergeist ever documented, dragging victims from their beds into the black. In this piece you’ll find whether the film is currently streaming on Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video or AppleTV+ (availability changes by region) and how to track it down without getting pulled into the dark. Though the film didn’t rake in major industry awards, its period atmosphere and full‑on poltergeist scares earned it a steady cult following among horror fans.

When the Lights Went Out

Synopsis

In 1974 Yorkshire, the Maynard family moves into what they believe will be their perfect home. That hope soon curdles into terror when they uncover a chilling secret—a discovery destined to make headlines. The house is already inhabited by an exceptionally violent poltergeist, a malignant force that rips sleepers from their beds and drags them, powerless, into the waiting darkness.
