In 1886, successful industrialist Lord Palethorn cast the Spell of Eternal Darkness over London, reanimating the dead. Unfortunately for him, he also mistakenly awakens [[Sir Daniel Fortesque]], a hero who fought the very same dark spell 500 years ago. Sir Dan is quickly introduced to the new world by [[Winston the Help Ghost]] and joins forces with [[Professor Hamilton Kift]]. On a quest to find out more about the evil sorcerer responsible for the spell, Daniel encounters his loyal henchmen, [[Dogman]] and [[Mander]]. Daniel later manages to save an ancient Egyptian Princess named [[Kiya]] from her tomb in the Museum. It is soon revealed that Palethorn doesn't have full control over the undead, because he lacks the final pages of the spell book. Daniel thus sets out on a mission to recover the missing pages of Zarok's spellbook and put a stop to Palethorn's plans before it's too late. | In 1886, successful industrialist Lord Palethorn cast the Spell of Eternal Darkness over London, reanimating the dead.
