A shockingly sensual reinterpretation of Sheridan LeFanu's notorious chiller. Captivated by the portrait of a beautiful woman, a young man finds himself becoming gradually obsessed with her remarkable story. Little by little, he uncovers the many blasphemies and debaucheries with which the beauteous Laura filled her hourseven as a hungry, otherworldly presence began feasting upon her.
