On a snow-covered Halloween night in the town of Aberlea, Jonathan Harker, a reclusive and wildly successful novelist, lives in an eerie Victorian mansion where the eyes in the paintings seem to watch your every move. Known for his chilling horror novels, Jonathan hides more than just dark tales within the walls of his grand but decaying home — there’s a secret buried in these walls that he’s desperate to keep hidden. Karlee Monroe, filling in for the local takeaway driver, arrives at Harker's mansion with a tale of a broken-down car. But nothing about her arrival is accidental.
