Wolf howls everywhere around the castle of Matthew. The owner of the castle was a firm believer in God and a follower of the apostle Matthew. It was the name derived from one of the apostles of Jesus, who is Matthew. Once it belonged to the family of kings, but later a tragedy happened, and it became a haunted castle where nobody could go. But a man named Matthew was ready to buy the castle for his accounting management, as he was an accountant.

 

Matthew managed to reorganize the haunted castle by cleaning and making it look good. But a problem was raised. There was a graveyard near the castle of Matthew. People advised Matthew to leave the place, as the graveyard was a major reason behind the castle's hauntedness. Matthew asked the history and the reason behind the castle's hauntedness. People said that it happened more than 100 years ago, and nobody can tell the history, as the known ones wouldn't tell the history to the future generations.

 

Matthew laughed and said that it was all drama because he is an atheist and doesn't believe in both God and Ghost. He said that he would take care of himself. After all these events, Matthew managed to do his accounts in the castle. Matthew had a reason why he had chosen a place like the castle for his accounts because he was an illegal accountant who makes money by doing bad things in his profession. He managed to hide all the black money in his castle for not being caught by the police, as they would be afraid to go inside the castle.

 

Matthew decides to hide the money and takes care of accounts in the castle in morning and decides to stay in his home at night. On his sleep after the first day of managing accounts in the castle and hiding the money, he heard a strange noise near his house. He managed to wake up and follow the noise. He understood that it was a noise coming outside his house. He did not scare, as he thought that it was the sound of an animal. He drew the curtain of the window near his living hall, and he got shocked that a man dressed like a grim was seeing him.

 

He got shocked as he was an atheist and managed to go to his bedroom for a goodnight sleep as he thought someone was scaring him because of his wealth. He managed to forget the thing and sleep. As he was sleeping, he sensed a touch of a person. He managed to open his eyes and got shocked when he saw the grim touching him. He shouted where the grim managed to draw him off from his house to the graveyard near the castle of Matthew. He asked the grim to leave him and said that he would not be coming again to the castle, and he understood that the existence of ghosts was real.

 

He saw the face of the grim as it was burned, and it was so horrible as one can be alive after seeing such a horrible face of a ghost. After seeing the face, Matthew was able to recollect something in his mind. He was devastated by the confusion in his mind. At last he managed to know that he was the son of the owner of the castle, whose name was Matthew, where the flashback arrives. Several hundred years ago, there lived a king called Judas. He was a generous king by the heart, a great warrior, and so on. But it was all the images created for him. He was handicapped.

 

He managed to hide his identity from all of the people. His kingdom was a very big one, but a group of people were much leaner as they were given only the breakfast of the day. They managed to work for him as they were made a petition to him as they became slaves after their king was lost to Judas. Judas's wife gave birth to a male child and named him Matthew, as he was a follower of Matthew. Years passed, and Matthew became the tax collector of the country, and he was so cruel by nature, like his father. He tortured the particular slaves for giving more tax for their kingdom.

 

Once on a day, he mana

ged to fall in love with a girl who belonged to the slavery community. As he was a crap, he managed to treat her like a slave and told her to spend a night with him and offered that he would consider giving more meals to the people. But the people strongly opposed him, as she was their girl and not ready to give her dignity for his lust. He managed to kill some of the people, pulled her towards him, and made his way towards the castle. He and his father raped her and killed her brutally.

 

After seeing all these things, Matthew's mother told his husband that he was a follower of Matthew and his son's name was Matthew, but why had they done that? Judas managed to punish her. After knowing that her cousin was dead, John from the slave community had a plan to kill the father-and-son duo for the country's welfare. John was the commander of the army of the kingdom of Judas. He had been thrown away by the slave community and raised by the higher community of people, and because of his great warrior strength and clever plans, he had been appointed by the king as a commander.

 

John managed to kill Judas in his room and also killed Matthew in his training room, where he killed him the same way he killed her cousin. As Judas was a firm believer in Matthew, he got a boon from a priest who had magical powers. Judas wished his son to have a second life after his death. Matthew managed to respawn at the place where he died, and he, in anger, killed all the slave community. With his cruel army, he raped all the women of the slavery community and destroyed their generations, and finally he killed John. But John, in anger, said that he would not make him happy after his death.

 

After all the incidents, Matthew managed to rule his kingdom again with the cruelty. But a tragedy had happened as the people started to make their way to another kingdom as they considered the place as haunted. They said that they are hearing strange crying noises, and an undefined object has been roaming around there, which was seen by them. The fertile lands became unfertile. People in the higher community became leaner due to a rare disease, and finally the castle of Matthew was haunted by the soul of John. Matthew managed to save himself and go out of the kingdom, but he was killed by the ghost of John.

 

The soul of John was unsatisfied even though he killed Matthew. He got to know that Matthew had married a girl, and both of them had a baby. John decided to destroy his generation, but he saw the face of the baby. It was a girl whose face was like his cousin. He decided to kill all the male children of his generations, but Matthew's daughter gave birth to a daughter, and the cycle continued. Hundreds of years. But after several hundred years, a baby boy was born. John decided to kill the baby after he was grown several years and his cruel characters would expose. He is the man Matthew who bought the castle. Even though it was his castle, it was sold to lease, and it was haunted for several hundred years, and nobody has bought it.

 

At last Matthew had bought the castle. Matthew heard the complete story of his ancestry. He managed to save himself from the grim by saying that he was a good person and he got to know that the grim had known completely about him as he dated a girl, cheated on her, made her pregnant, and left her. John the Grim managed to kill Matthew, and he at last found peace in his soul as he destroyed the direct ancestors of Matthew. A baby was born was to the girl cheated by Matthew, who was a boy, and she decided to raise him as a good boy, not like his father, but John the Grim managed to go to the hospital and decided to kill the child. There is a twist that two babies have been missing, one of whom was Matthew's child, and another one was also a boy, and their parents called him by a name called Matthew.
