Synopsis

Plot

It had been a bad week. Lots of papers to grade this weekend. Now it's Friday evening, and with your feet propped on the kitchen windowsill of your tiny apartment, you begin to review your prospects for the weekend.

Your eyes rest on the letter sent to you by your uncle Ignatz. Strange man, always seemed old, always seemed on the brink of death. And now he's invited you to a family reunion. Not that there is much family left. Just yourself and your cousins Agatha and Gary. The old man never married. No children. Suppose there will be an inheritance some day, but who knows? Uncle Ignatz might just live forever. That would serve Agatha and Gary right! Never did like either of them much. Would like to see Reeves, though. Bet he's at least ten years older than your uncle, but he always seemed so much younger. You used to hear how Reeves and your uncle were originally in business together, but no one ever seemed to know exactly what kind of business they were in. One thing for sure, neither of them ever left the house much...

Oh, well, it looks like it's going to be a stormy weekend, and who feels like taking that long drive out to Willow House in the rain?

There is a knock at the door.
