The year is 1938. Rebecca and Richard are Americans escaping a nightmare. Their flight from Berlin has brought them to this dark place in the Romanian woods. They seek sanctuary in the ancient home of the Count and Countess Viroslav -- within castle walls adorned with tapestries celebrating chaos, flesh, and seduction. Their host and hostess appear ageless, exquisite and generous; beautiful creatures of the night.

Here, every pleasure is explored -- and nothing is forbidden.

But unholy things have lured Rebecca and Richard into a web of evil -- enticing the attractive young couple with erotic fantasy and silken caress... and a promise of sensuous, undying love at the cost of their very souls.
