Story:
It is Christmas of 1924, three months after Alone in the
Dark. "Supernatural Private Eye" Edward Carnby and his partner Ted
Stryker are investigating the kidnapping of young Grace Saunders. The trail of
clues leads to an old mansion named "Hell's Kitchen" - the home of an
infamous gangster boss and his gang. Edward decides to pick up the trail when
he learns of Ted's disappearance in the mansion. Unfortunately, Edward soon
finds out that Ted has been murdered.
Carnby eventually finds out that the mobsters are the
corporeal forms of the spirits of pirates that plundered the sea hundreds of
years ago. Fighting his way into the house and ultimately onto a pirate ship
hidden in the cliff on which Jack's house is built, Edward must rescue little
Grace, and find out why the pirates have taken an interest in her.
