It is a time when ghostly spirits are at their strongest, when the veil between our world and theirs is at its thinnest. Legend has it, that while most of the world is asleep, the lack of prayers allow the spirits to communicate under the cover of darkness, among the headstones, their whispers rustling in the leaves of the old oak trees.

Undervejs støder de både på orkaner og fjendtlige franskmænd, som må overvindes, før de kan komme til at opleve orientens fremmedartede syner og dufte på nært hold.
