Alli and Jacob are a couple of 30-somethings living in New York City with their three young children. Alli is busy and stressing in nursing the kids, straining her relationship with husband Jacob. Alli's apartment's window faces with an apartment neighbor's window. Alli and Jacob both covertly spy on the couple, bitter about their loss of youth and new responsibilities as parents.
One day, Jacob comments that the neighbor man has "shaved his head" and looks hungover. Shortly after, while Jacob and the kids are out, Alli spies across the street again to find the man in hospice; he dies soon after. Alli goes out to witness the man being taken out in a body bag and finds the wife crying on the sidewalk. The woman reveals that ever since her husband became "sick," they would find comfort in watching the family through the window, much in the way Jacob and Alli did. The two embrace.
When Karen loses her temper on Lisa one day and screams at her in the school parking lot (after seeing Lisa bought her exact same car), Lisa uses the action as ammunition to get a restraining order against her neighbor. Of course, the restraining order is merely a stepping stone in her grand master plan to get Karen thrown in jail, as is evidenced by what happened next.
Truitt told Oxygen.com that, like the victim in both the film and the book, she had to deal with a neighbor that made up weird lies and copied her appearance. Later, she falsely accused Truitt of neglecting her son.

At the start of Neighbor, Salt Lake City realtor-slash-master decorator, Karen (Sigler), relocates to the Pacific Northwest with her family. She quickly befriends a few neighbors who have kids around the same age as her son. One neighbor in particular, Lisa (Lyon), may be a little too perfect to be true.
The two neighbors have much in common, including suffering the loss of a child. At first the Seattle transplant notices the mom next door peeking at her and her husband through her window. What follows is a series of events that raise major red flags that lead to the revelation that Lisa is not only envious of the realtor, but will do whatever it takes to get what she has.
When upbeat, outgoing Karen Morgan (Jamie-Lynn Sigler), her husband Scott and their young son relocate to Washington for Scott's job, Karen looks forward to starting a new life. She soon meets Lisa Beasley (Jennifer Lyon), her beautiful charming neighbor. The two women seem to really understand each other and quickly bond. But Lisa soon starts lying to Karen-and about Karen-in strange ways, ways that make it look to Karen's other neighbors, to her son's teacher and, eventually, to the police, as if Karen is harassing Lisa. Lisa cleverly sets herself up as Karen's victim, until every aspect of Karen's new life starts to unravel. Lisa adds fuel to the fire by claiming that Karen has physically attacked her. Karen tries fighting back. She discovers that Lisa has an actual condition called "False Victim Syndrome" and works hard to clear her own name. But she doesn't realize how desperate and cunning Lisa is-until things come to a shocking head. Then Karen only has one slim shot at saving herself.
Additionally, unlike Nicky Roth, Mr. Peterson seems to suffer no ill effects from large heights, as he can jump off of a balcony and continue chasing Nicky without being affected in any way, although he usually attempts to pathfind his way downward instead. He also appears to have a very good sense of hearing, as breaking a window or turning on a TV (and radio in versions prior to Alpha 3) will immediately attract his attention and cause him to investigate the source of the noise, and respond by either boarding up a window or setting a bear trap in front of it to deter future attempts to enter through that window. Other loud sounds will interrupt this however, meaning that breaking multiple windows allows for more than one point of entry, with only a single window being heavily fortified at a time. However, boards block the entire window, and not just singular panes of the glass, if it has two or three panes. He also appears to have a good sense of sight, as even if Nicky is at the very top of the house and he is at the bottom or down the street, he will spot Nicky and attempt to chase him.
In the Pre-Alpha, there was a giant version of the Neighbor that appeared only during a nightmare sequence in which the protagonist is trapped in the house. The Neighbor looked in through the window and then attempted to grab the protagonist, first by reaching through the front door and then by smashing the front window.
He returned in Beta 3 onwards, in which he is a boss, and is much, much larger. The opening sequence for the encounter also plays similarly, except he looks in the window for longer, screams with a childish scream (which is lowered in pitch in the final build) and smashes the room with his hand instead of attempting to grab the protagonist through the window. He then looks around for a bit before frustratedly standing up straight. A house is situated on his back, which the protagonist must reach by making the giant Mr. Peterson unable to stand up properly. This can be achieved by using some of the giant objects in the area, such as hitting his face with a firework to stun him, and using baseballs, a cola bottle, and a bow and sucker-tipped arrow to hit him in the legs.
Numage, or better known as The Neighbour, is a mysterious entity and the main antagonist in the The Window Next Door manga by acclaimed Japanese horror-mangaka Junji Ito. She is a perverted, deformed yet terrifying neighbour of the main protagonist Hiroshi, taking a liking to him, the neighbour seeks to "have fun" with him by any means possible by breaching his privacy to trespass his room through his window as both their windows are facing each other.
The protagonist, Hiroshi Sakaguchi and his family move into a new house into new neighbourhood. They are curious and suspiscious about the house next door, which has only one window and one door. Their neighbor tells them whilst he has never seen her, it is said the inhabitant, is a middle-aged woman, is never seen or spoken to; but he has spotted a figure moving about at the window during the night. When Hiroshi goes to bed he hears an eerie voice calling to him and sees a woman with a hideous, monstrous, cadaverous face and clawed, bony hands asking him to come visit her and "play", saying her door is open and she's waiting.
Hiroshi goes back to sleep, dismissing it as a dream in the morning, though he wonders if her door really was open. But the following night he hears the voice again, now upset that he didn't visit when she prepared "snacks" and "goodies" for him. He looks out of the window to see Numage trying to climb across to his room by pushing a long, rusty pole into his open window. Numage sinisterly asks him to hold the pole as she comes over
The terrified Hiroshi yells "what are you doing" and strikes the pole down to the ground, quickly running into his parents' room, calling for help. When the parents arrive to his room, the neighbor's window is closed and her room is unlit, and thus the parents are not sure whether the woman is real, discussing the possibility that it might've been a nightmare. After some discussion the family finally agrees that Hiroshi will switch rooms with his parents.
Numage doesn't reappear for the next few days, even Hiroshi starts to wonder if the monstrous woman really existed and reluctantly eventually moves back to his old room. When he goes to sleep, Numage appears once more and mentions its been a long time since she has seen him. This time, the lady says she will reach over to his house with her hands, hoping to knock on his window and be given entry.
