Adored by his three beautiful sisters for being handsome and charming, and envied by his hard-working older brother for being a parasite, Edward Glynn has just died under mysterious circumstances. Upon arrival at the family estate for Edward's funeral, a grief-stricken Emma (June Griffin Garcia) finds Rebecca (Antoinette Anders) neurotic, Caroline (Jenni Mabrey) defensive, and Henry (Dwayne D. Smith) behaving oddly. To further compound the family's devastation, a strange presence occupies one of the rooms of the mansion. A modern adaption of the short story by Mary E. Wilkins Freeman.
