Synopsis: |
In 1040, Scottish rebels kill Prince James, the heir to the English throne. However, his spirit does not move on but instead kills his assassins and is somehow trapped in the castle.

A U-boat sinks the ship carrying the castle and frees James’ ghost, who uses his nearly limitless powers to insure others do not die a death similar to his. |
