Count Réginald de Malveneur lives in his ancestral castle with his wife Estelle and their little daughter Geneviève.  His spinster sister Magda occupies herself with the running of the house.  According to an ancient legend, the first of the Malveneurs trained wolves for the hunt, but he was transformed into a wolf by a curse and began to attack the locals.   Since that day, the inhabitants of the nearby village have kept their distance from the Malveneurs.  Whilst busying himself with his biological experiments in his laboratory, Réginald suddenly goes missing, along with his gamekeeper.  One night, Estelle hears a piano playing The Forgotten Waltz, a song that her husband Réginald was very fond of.  The next day she is found dead...
