Major Story Arcs

Bradley Townes is from a rich Victorian England family, and is bored with his place in life. His brother Harrison works as an antiques dealer, and has been disinherited due to the fact that he actually wanted a job, instead of just living in the lap of luxury. Bradley, however, remains the family favorite, and unknown to him, Harrison is determined to get revenge on him.

Harry has a magic orb, and is secretly a fairly skilled wizard. He gets Bradley interested in the dark arts and gives him an orb as well, but sabotages it so that all the spells cast through it are warped failures.

Bradley accidentally disfigures himself and turns his head upside-down! Fearful of discovery, he becomes a recluse even from his wife Samantha. However, in his attempts to fix himself, he keeps summoning demons to London and causing havoc. The detectives Mandy Flynn, Salem Hawkshaw, and Bozz stumble upon the case and begin investigating. Harry summons some demons of his own to attack them but they fend them off.

The detectives eventually find out about Bradley, who is distraught at his situation. When Samantha sees him, she faints. The detectives confront Harrison and stop him.

Harry destroys his own orb out of anger and kills himself, leaving Bradley in his deformed state. It is unknown how Samantha deals with Bradley's deception and disfigurement.
