In Victorian London, Constance, a lowly clerk, marries Joseph Barton, a biological researcher, and believes she has found her ultimate husband and protector. But after three miscarriages and the troubled birth of their daughter, Angelica, things begin to change. Constance begins to fear her husband's intentions, his potentially murderous hatred of her, and his efforts to alienate her from their child. Sensing the presence of supernatural evil in the house, she calls upon a spiritualist to save them all.
