When American journalist Jon Harkness is reassigned to his paper’s London office, he quickly becomes embroiled in a bizarre tale involving an ancient family curse. Whilst out for a drive, his car is surrounded by an eerie fog and he finds himself on the wild Cornish coast by a medieval-looking pub named The Drowned Man.
It is here that Harkness overhears the locals talking about an ancient curse that haunts the prominent Manson family, which piques his interest. Upon visiting the family’s mansion, Harkness is plunged headlong into the chilling tale of a spell that has worked its power over the Manson clan for centuries.
