Storyline
| Plot Summary |
In 1795, in England, the young woman Catherine moves to the house of her fiancé Charles Fengriffen in the country to get married with him. When she arrives, she feels interest in the portraits of the Fengriffen family, particularly in the one of Charle's grandfather Henry Fengriffen, which seems to have a sort of evil entity possessing it. While admiring Henry's face, a severed hand attacks Catherine through the picture on the wall. Later, she gets married with Charles, beginning her journey of mystery, eerie apparitions, secrets and deaths, and having her days filled with fear and the nights with horrors in a cursed family. Written by Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil |

| Goofs | A younger stunt double takes over the fall midway down at approximately 36:00. As she "lands" at the bottom of the stairs she appears to be crawling into position before she comes to a full stop. Her resting position changes between shots. First her skirts are up with petticoats showing. In the next shot her legs have moved and her skirts are now discreetly at her ankles. No character touched her in between. See more » |
