There is something odd about 'Osborn Cottage'- an old, Victorian house on a modern American street. In there used to live three generations of an eccentric family. Eccentric, owing to the curious way of their deaths. The oldest Mr. Osborn- the rich and the famous artist, on one gloomy night, jumped off into the river. The next Mr. Osborn was then chased and shot down by the cops, and the latest one, he succumbs to a genetic disorder in the very womb. This mystery darkens a shade further when a certain Mr. Hill receives an invitation to the house but finds no one upon his arrival-instead, a message, apparently from one of the dead Osborns, asking him to stay. And then follows a series of unusual events, making Mr. Hill smell a rat and pushing him on a quest for the truth-a truth which will falsify his very own existence.
