==Synopsis==
While visiting family on Christmas Eve, Louie receives a present intended for him by his recently-deceased uncle. Opening the gift, he finds it to be a play called The King in Yellow, and he falls asleep while reading it. Awakening into a strangely disturbing dream, he meets his cousin Connie, apparently having the same dream. Suddenly, a figure clad in tattered yellow robes appears, and traps the two in their nightmare. As he begins to relive the same Christmas Day for all eternity, he realises that it had all been planned by his uncle, Connie's father.
