Spoilers ahead
Two sisters, Kitty Wildenbrück Barbara Bouchet and Evelyn, are cursed by a family painting that marks a century-long cycle in which a Red Queen rises from the dead to kill seven times. To break the curse, their grandfather Tobias Wildenbrück Rudolf Schündler orders the painting removed from sight.
Years later, Kitty accidentally kills Evelyn during a fight. Their older cousin, Franziska Wildenbrück Marina Malfatti, covers up the death, and Tobias is told that Evelyn immigrated to the United States. This rift gnaws at Kitty, who accepts Franziska’s cover-up yet battles overwhelming guilt. When Tobias dies from a fear-induced heart attack, a string of murders begins to unfold around Kitty, each seemingly carried out by a red-cloaked Evelyn.
