Sarah Lockwood Pardee, originaire de New Haven dans le Connecticut, épouse en 1862 William Wirt Winchester, le fils unique d'Oliver Winchester, le propriétaire de la Winchester Repeating Arms Company. Sarah donnera naissance quatre ans plus tard à la petite Annie Pardee Winchester, mais l'enfant décède quelques semaines plus tard d'une maladie. Sarah Winchester en est très affectée et tombe dans une profonde dépression. Oliver Winchester meurt en 1880 et son fils William décède à son tour, un an plus tard. Sarah hérite donc de la moitié des parts de la Winchester Repeating Arms Company et d'une véritable fortune. Mais Sarah pense qu'elle et sa famille sont maudites. En 1886, elle va alors décider de faire construire un vaste manoir à San José pour y accueillir des fantômes, surnommée la Mystérieuse Maison Winchester.

In 1795, Dr. Victor Frankenstein (Aden Young) creates a monster (Aaron Eckhart), a soulless creature patched together from corpses, and then rejects it, disgusted with what he's made. In a fit of rage, the creature kills Victor's wife Elizabeth (Virginie Le Brun) and Victor chases it to the Arctic to get revenge, but succumbs to the weather. The creature buries his creator in the Frankenstein family crypt and is then attacked by demons before being rescued by the gargoyles Ophir (Mahesh Jadu) and Keziah (Caitlin Stasey), who bring it before the gargoyle queen Leonore (Miranda Otto) and their commander Gideon (Jai Courtney). Leonore explains that they were created by the Archangel Michael to battle demons on Earth and protect humanity. They name the creature "Adam" and invite him to join them, but he declines and departs after being given heavy, baton-like weapons to protect him, as more demons will come after him. The weapons allow him to "descend" demons (destroying their bodies and trapping their souls in Hell) as they have the symbol of the Gargoyle Order carved on them.
