Set against the backdrop of the Great Plague and subsequent witch-hunts
against women, Grace Haverstock (Charlotte Kirk) must grapple with the
tragic untimely death of her husband Joseph (Joe Anderson) in a society
completely consumed by fear and death. Because she rejects her landlord
Squire Pendleton’s (Steven Waddington) advances, she is falsely accused of
being a witch and thrown in jail for a crime she didn’t commit. Grace must
endure physical persecution at the hands of England’s most ruthless
witch-hunter Judge Moorcroft (Sean Pertwee) and face her own inner demons
as the Devil himself starts to work his way into her mind.
