Based on H P Lovecraft's tale, "The Shunned House," presents the stories of three people who all died within the confines of the dark and isolated chateau. Each story is taken from a different period in time, yet they combine with one another to reveal the house's dark past to a journalist specialising in the paranormal and his sceptic girlfriend.

Two hundred million years ago, the Ancient Ones colonized the Earth; they created the human race and enslaved it. Their ancient knowledge was contained in a sacred text called the Necronomicon and through its power it was possible to open wide the gates to the Unknown Beyond. Now, centuries later, the human race has rebelled and a war lasting millennia has driven man to the bowels of the Earth.
