When a young boy is sent out to assassinate the king, King George IV, he believes he's going to get a good sum of wealth from this job. He finds out that the king had been dead for over 10 years, and no one knew for some odd reason. King George's ghost looms over the young boy, watching his next prey fall into all his traps. Because the king's friend has been sending people over to "assassinate" the king, they've all just become new sources of meat for the thing down in the basement. The friend supplies and the king allows.
