I like this. Intriguing.
But, I have to agree with Sadie. I feel the menacing presence needs to be something more concrete.
If the menacing presence is something more psychological that is hard to define,? (and I well understand the logline struggle in this scenario), I’d try and pick the most tangible and vivid element.
“An agoraphobic writer must revisit her dark past (As a witch? give us a detail) to come up with the clues in her childhood mansion, to defeat the Demon that has haunted her since her youth”
Sadie,
You have some irony in place already to build onto. I suggest you visit something unique about this menacing presence. Something that’ll give that horror hook to your pitch. Not sure if revisiting her dark past is worth mentioning unless you include some element about it that is relevant to defeating the presence.
May want to also include what the deadline is.
