the liberty of entering the chapel.

We thought it was an abandoned ruin,

and we couldn't resist our curiosity.

It's all so strange

and mysterious here.

Everything is going to ruins here.

My father, Prince Vaida,

Refuses to repair even this old chapel.

This place, in his eyes, is cursed.

My Lords, the wheel is

ready, we can go now.

We're coming.

Please excuse us,

Princess, but we have to go.

We still have five versts between us and Mirgorod.

We are spending the night there.

Allow me not to say 'goodbye'

to you, I hope to see you again...

Thank you. I trust you will

spend a good night at Mirgorod.

Did she bewitch you?

What sadness in her eyes!

And this?

A souvenir of the witch.

What a strange sound.

Like a voice breaking off.

Wolves!

That's why in the forest today

we couldn't find any tracks of wild deer.

No, it's a different kind of howling.

Those are not wolves.

The gryphon moved.

Constantin! Katia!

-What is it?

-Father?

It wasn't painted like this, was it?

It was alive for a moment,

now it's dead again.

-What are you saying?

-I'm certain of it.

Yes, Father is right, it

wasn't in that position before.

Katia, you were always impressed by that portrait,

I don't know why.

That portrait is like a smoldering fire;

it burns with a mysterious secret life.

There is something different

about her eyes, her hands...

Sometimes I'm afraid to go near it.

Katia, Constantin must be right.

My imagination is playing tricks on me.

Let's not talk about it anymore.

How cold it is.

The chill that seems to come out of the

fireplace tonight penetrates my bones.

Why don't you get some sleep, Father?

Your eyes are tired.

My eyes aren't tired...

my spirit is.

Go, go... I want to be alone now.

Good night.

Good night, my Lord.

No, wait...

How many years have you

been serving in this house?

I was born here, my Lord.

Today is the feast of Saint George.

Do you know the legend of the

curse that was placed on this castle?

Two centuries ago today, two people

were executed for practicing witchcraft.

Princess Asa and her lover and accomplice,

Prince Javutich. The mask of Satan

was nailed forever to their faces.

One century later, an earthquake

destroyed only the ancient chapel

and the witch's sarcophagus was found split open,

as if Asa was trying to break

out and accomplish her revenge.

In fact, on that night,

Princess Macha

died mysteriously.

Beautiful Macha... the very image of the witch.

She was just twenty-one that day...

Like Katia.

And Katia is her living image.

As if the witch chooses her victims and torments

them with her own beauty before killing them.

It is this resemblance, this echoing
