Overview
In this cheerily goofy spoof of all those gothic novels where the heroine is brought to the ancient manor by her handsome, brooding groom, new bride Daphne is brought to Brackenloch the day after her husband, Jabez Thorngall, lost his first bride to the family curse: any bride at Brackenloch Manor is doomed to die on her wedding day. At the bottom of the bracken-fringed Scottish loch which gives the manor its name lurks “Bracky,” who is not a monster to take lightly. The murder of Jabez’s father six years earlier remains unsolved, and family disappearances create further mysteries. Suspicion and danger are omnipresent, and audiences love every minute of this thriller.
