When a witch disguised as a beggar comes to cruel Lord Caspian's home asking for charity, he brutally attacks her. Hell-bent on revenge, the witch turns Caspian into a beast, kills his wife, and turns his son into a wolf. The curse causes a century of snowfall and insurmountable death.
One hundred years later, when the Hershel men trespass on the Beast's property during a hunt, Lord Caspian captures and threatens to slaughter them for their crime.
Harlan Hershel offers his daughter Rosalind to the beast for a month to save his sons.
But reality and illusions blur when the Beast sees Rosalind. Believing she is the reincarnation of his wife, he becomes fiercely drawn to her.
Though terrified at first Rosalind grows fonder of the abominable lord and the cold surrounding his land. The closer she gets to the secrets he keeps, especially of the mysterious stranger in the violin room, the more he awakens a darkness in her she wants to explore.
When Rosalind's true calling is discovered, that she is the one prophesied to kill the lord, her desire for him threatens to destroy the person she once was, and all of Transylvania.

"Have you found her yet?!" a man sitting on chair asks impatiently.
"No, my lord," the soldier says bowing his head.
"Well what are you doing here then?" asks the man with anger.
"Um- well."
"Well are you going to answer or are you just going to stand there like a fool!" he says rudely.
"Ah well you see. There are a lot of guards around her and we...the soldiers don't know how to get past all of them without being seen."
"So make a plan. I give you one job and you can't do it yourself. You should pity yourself!" the man says standing up abruptly making the chair fall.
"Well we do have a plan, my lord."
"Okay," the man says staring at the soldier, "Tell me!" he adds when the soldier stays quiet.
"We were wondering if we could kill them all by making a trap."
"Okay then kill them," the man says with no mercy.
"Yes, my lord. We will leave tomorrow," the soldier says bowing his head and leaves.
