Plot
On the night of June 6, 1966, Lucius Wagner is born. Born into wealth, he spends his childhood in the luxurious manor house on the private estate of his father, Charles Wagner and his wife, Nancy. Unbeknownst to him, his family's wealth stems from his grandfather Fabius's previous ties to the mafia. After celebrating on the night of his sixth birthday, he is visited by Lucifer, who instructs him to lock a maid in the freezer after everyone else has gone to bed. While Lucius is asleep, he is once again visited by Lucifer, who promises Lucius great power. The next morning, a detective, McGuffin, and a deputy are sent to investigate the death.
Over the following months, Lucius carefully picks off the manor's inhabitants using household appliances and his newly acquired supernatural abilities; McGuffin dismisses each death as an accident. Following the death of Charles' campaign manager, word of mouth about the deaths reaches the press. After the poisoning of one of the manor's inhabitants, McGuffin begins to further investigate. Lucius uses the affair of his uncle, Tom, to frame a housemaid involved, whose death is then staged as a suicide. McGuffin presents evidence of the affair to a distraught Tom, who begins to drink heavily. Lucius discovers a ritual room hidden in the manor, and kills an inebriated Tom by covertly planting a poisoned bottle. A dying Tom realizes Lucius is responsible for all of the deaths, and weakly chastises him for his actions in his final moments. Believing that his brother has drunken himself to death, Charles expels McGuffin from the manor. Feeling guilty, McGuffin confesses to a priest, who believes the Wagner family needs help. Fabius refuses to attend Tom's funeral and suggests his involvement with satanism to Charles. Later, the manor is visisted by priests, who are rudely dismissed by Fabius. While dismissing them, a journalist interested in the deaths breaks into the house and, after being spotted by Fabius, is knocked out. Fabius wakes Lucius, who he realizes is the result of a pact he made to pull the antichrist out of his bloodline, and the two sneak down to the manor's ritual room to perform a sacrifice on the journalist. Realizing that Fabius is no longer of any use to him, Lucius betrays him by stabbing him in the back, and incinerates the journalist using pyrokinesis.
Lucius continues to cull the members of his house until only Charles and Nancy are left. An increasingly disturbed Charles begins to suspect Lucius may be cursed. While attempting to prove this to a mentally unstable Nancy, he is mind-controlled into killing her with a nearby nailgun. McGuffin and his deputy arrive as this takes place. Charles accuses Lucius as he flees the scene. Lucius is put into the care of McGuffin's deputy, who he manages to decapitate with a ceiling fan. Setting the house ablaze with his powers, Lucius is confronted by Charles and priests. After Charles is killed—either by Lucius or McGuffin, depending on the player's choice—Lucius leaves the burning manor with McGuffin.
