视频简介
American psychologist John Holden arrives in London to participate in a symposium aiming to expose witchcraft and devil-worship as a fraud, with attention centered on a cult run by a Julian Karswell. Debarking his plane, Holden learns that the symposium leader, Henry Harrington, has suddenly died and he is now in charge. What only the audience knows is that Harrington was clearly killed by a demon, apparently summoned by Karswell to avenge his persecution. Despite both threatening and cajoling behavior by Karswell, Holden determines to proceed, though the only cult member willing to talk about his experiences is in a prison psychiatric ward, catatonic after allegedly killing yet another cult member. However, Harrington's niece, Joanna, believes, based on her uncle's notes, that Karswell may indeed have some satanic powers derived from an ancient tome in an obscure language which he has been able to translate, and attempts to warn the skeptic Holden. Karswell's mother also attempts to warn Holden off. However, the thing which begins to most get to Holden are the occasional, but mounting, sensory and mental disturbances he begins experiencing after an encounter with Karswell, and the discovery that, during this encounter, Karswell secretly slipped a slip of parchment with a curse in runic symbols on it into Holden's belongings, a parchment identical to one Harrington recorded having had passed to him in a similar manner shortly before his death... [N.B. Holden at no point stays at the Karswell estate].。这部壮观的史诗系列剧聚焦于黄金二十年代的两个结晶:首都沉沦于贫困、暴力和混乱之中,而城西百货商场则是奢华和美丽的绿洲。从第一次世界大战归来后,哈里·詹多夫以血腥手段的制止了百货公司劫匪的武装袭击。他的父亲阿道夫·詹多夫,靠着商业上的谨慎和可靠的会计师格尔戈的支持经营着这家濒临破产的传统企业,这位受到创伤的小老板将他的冒险精神带到了企业的最前沿。而对于哈里的妹妹弗里来说,上层社会并没有在管理层中为其提供一个位置的家庭传统。同时弗里与百货公司的女售货员渐生情愫,开启了一段禁忌之恋~微博@亿万同人字幕分享。
