Written in the early 20th century, it follows the pursuits of Harlan and Dorothy Carr, newlyweds, inheriting an impressive, large and quite scary country home from Dorothy's Uncle Ebeneezer.

What would normally seem like a fortunate and exciting life event soon turns out to be much more than the young couple had bargained for. Aside from opportunistic relatives and a beautiful young woman showing up at the door and increasing the tension between the two, the house itself seems to still be filled with the presence of Uncle Ebeneezer, bringing about some of the eeriest and most unusual challenges that Dorothy and Harlan need to overcome together.
