London's dockside is threatened by the twin terrors of a plague leaving bodies covered in tentacles and a slasher killing women in the night. Desperate for answers after the wrong man is executed for the murders, a group of Londoners holds a seance to contract the supposed killer, and his story of a girl born of the sea who has brought a terrible curse only brings them more questions.
