A tragedy takes place in an abandoned house: a man kills his wife, and then commits suicide. Their 6-year-old son disappears without a trace. Since the day of the tragic event, an evil and violent ghost of the mother frequents the manor, tormenting every living creature that dares enter the house. By chance, Nishina Rika, a volunteer, enters the house, when she sees a little boy inside. When Nishina comes inside, the little boy disappears... She soon learns that the rumours surrounding the building are actually true: the curse that was put on her after the visit makes members of her family die, one after another...
