Battler Ushiromiya and his family decide to go to see their grandfather/father Kinzo after he has according to them diseased. What they do not know is that he has a contract with Beatrice the golden witch. He lives by himself on an island named Rokkenjima, his immense wealth and status are to be thanked by this same witch. In the main hall of the house there is an epitaph, consisting of 9 things that have to be solved and happened before one can enter the Golden Land.
Battler and his family are eager to solve this problem because this will mean immense wealth for one of them. At some points the vieuwpoints of the characters will change in a way beyond imagining. But this red-headed boy is persistent. He doesn’t believe in witches, then how can Beatrice exist? Every night one by one the family members will die as long as no one solves this incredibly difficult epitaph. Aunt Rosa, her husband and George have their own reasons for wanting to win this. Also, the servants are at some point found ”guilty”.
You can clearly see at some points that the makers of Higurashi no naku koro ni (when the chicadas cry) have been working on this project. A lot of elements that made the Higurashi series good are also implemented here. If you don’t mind the story starting out the same and changing along the way, you’ll love this series as much as I do. (And I am not a big fan of repetition 
) All in all a must watch series!
