A band of humans seek the infernal book Necronomicon in order to defeat the Old Ones whose evil is destroying the Earth.

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.
