Lady Haloran (Eithne Dunne) has arranged for her fortune to go to a charity under the mysterious name Kathleen. John reminds his wife that she won’t inherit anything if he dies before his mother, he then immediately has a fatal heart attack. Louise dumps John’s body in the lake and makes it look like John is away on a business trip so she can trick Lady Haloran into changing her will. Haloran Castle has a strange tradition where the Haloran family must relive the funeral of Kathleen every year, where Lady Haloran faints every single time. Louise then begins her cruel plan.You have to see Dementia 13 for yourself because the description of this film will never match the visual madness.
