Story:
On their way to a costume party, Detective Nick Dashell and his wife Darla find themselves stranded in a remote area. The car has broken down. They seek shelter in a large estate populated by some very oddball characters, such as a sarcastic maid named Deidre and a shady gentleman named Captain Trucage.
Only seeking to use the phone, they learn the lines are down and the roads are washed out due to the storm. It that was not enough, they also find themselves involved in some mysterious events: Mrs. Ludos' necklace is stolen and gunshots were heard.
Should they hang out and help solve the mystery? Sure, why not? After all, they can't leave. Perhaps stranger than the inexplicable occurrences of the evening, are the actual guests they find at the estate. Everyone is acting very oddly and using really bad British accents. And when one of the guests is found strangled in the kitchen, no one seems to be alarmed except for Nick and Darla.
