Horror

Verden Fell is shattered after the death of his lovely wife. But, after an unexpected encounter with Lady Rowena Trevanion, Fell soon finds himself married again. Nevertheless, his late wife's spirit seems to hang over the dilapidated abbey that Fell shares with his new bride. Lady Rowena senses that something is amiss and, when she investigates, makes a horrifying discovery -- learning that Fell's dead wife is closer than she ever imagined possible.

VIBE

A lavishly colored, gothic mood piece steeped in obsession and the lingering presence of the past. It's a slow, atmospheric descent into dread, perfect for a solitary, late-night viewing when the shadows lengthen and the veil between worlds feels thin.
