Set in the 1850s, the series follows Captain Charles Boone (Adrien Brody), who relocates his family of three children to his ancestral home in the small, seemingly sleepy town of Preacher’s Corners, Maine after his wife dies at sea. However, Charles will soon have to confront the secrets of his family’s sordid history, and fight to end the darkness that has plagued the Boones for generations.

Along with Brody, the series also stars Emily Hampshire (Schitt’s Creek) as Rebecca Morgan, previously described as “an ambitious young woman” who left the comforts of home for college and has now returned to write for the prestigious Atlantic Magazine. She is instantly drawn to Brody’s character, and applies to be governess of the infamous Chapelwaite manor so that she may write the next great gothic novel based on his family.
