It is Halloween night and The Van Hellfire family are hosting their annual Spooktacular at their large country mansion.
Hundreds of guests attend, all in costumes – mummies, werewolves, vampires etc... The room is heavily decorated but one prop in particular has drawn a lot of attention – a golden sarcophagus placed in the centre of the room.
For one guest, the curiosity becomes too much; opening the Egyptian tomb, the guests discover the recently deceased body of their host, Vladimir Van Hellfire.
