At the Queen’s request, Ciel and the demon butler Sebastian host an extravagant dinner party for the who’s who of the London underground. But an evening that begins with the promise of unmatched elegance quickly spirals into mayhem when their most distinguished guest is found murdered in his room.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A locked-room murder mystery wrapped in Gothic atmosphere and supernatural intrigue, where the stakes sharpen as the night wears on and trust becomes as fragile as the manor's civilized veneer. The film balances genuine menace with darkly comedic moments as a young lord and his demonic butler navigate a deadly game among London's elite.
