Why these tropes fit

A woman moves into a haunted house on the edge of a graveyard in the tiny town of Red Grove, where she finds herself physically drawn to Rick, the hot cemetery caretaker, despite swearing off men. When a spirit appears on her staircase and dark forces connected to her, the house, and the attic ghosts begin to surface, she turns to Rick for help uncovering the strangeness haunting her new home.
