In a quiet corner of Prussia, late night peals of a ghostly bell summon select victims to a gruesome and otherworldly death. It's a dark event that's haunted the land for five centuries, and the truth behind it is made all the more elusive with superstition shrouding its history.
Lukas Geiger assists his uncle, a country doctor, and will do everything he can to unravel this mystery. It proves to be difficult, however, with doors being shut in his face while many young patients exhibit signs of physical abuse and neglect, and their tormentors succumb to the spectral bell's calls. Surviving adults simply refuse to speak and leave their doctors frustrated and helpless.
Herrick Shriver returns to his birth country after finishing his studies in England, reuniting with the beloved uncle who helped raise him. Wide-eyed hope, however, crosses paths with dark secrets that refuse to stay silent. A strange bell tolls, and the night feels wrong. A silent figure stands on the moonlit drive, watching the manor house. Occasional nightmares about a long-dead friend trouble his uncle-as well as the doctors who look after him, one of whom catches and holds Herrick's attention.
As their paths converge, Lukas and Herrick soon learn that the truth lies in a long-abandoned church and its eerie collection of statues. That every step toward discovery is guided by a faded journal once owned by a nameless priest. That past and present might be more hopelessly entangled than they believed.
Set in an AU 19th century Europe, Compline is a gothic reimagining of "The Pied Piper of Hamelin".
