The story begins in 1834 in New Orleans as Mme Delphine LaLaurie hosts an extravagant party in her household. Flaunting her three daughters, Marie Jeanne, Pauline, and Borquita, she discusses their inner beauty. Her youngest, Pauline, comments that perhaps her hidden talents lie in the boudoir; LaLaurie does not know of her relationship with one of her black servants. That evening, LaLaurie sits in front of her mirror and smears herself with blood in an attempt to enhance her vitality. Discovering that Pauline is possibly sleeping with the servant, she decides to punish the boy, Bastien (despite his claims that hes in love with someone else). Hes taken to a dungeon already occupied by tortured prisoners where LaLaurie places a severed bull head atop his. She always wanted one of her own.-Joshua
