May contain story progression spoilers
Verena believes an otherworldly persona is trapped within the castle's stone walls, making the building itself the source of dread.
The story uses illusions and dreamlike scenes while Verena tries to determine whether Jakob is bewitched and what is approaching her.
The nurse's investigation unfolds inside an isolated castle in Tuscany, including its mansion, stonework, and surrounding quarry.
The mute young heir's condition and Verena's growing connection to the castle's persona combine family succession with supernatural possession.
