Halloween Eve in Weehawken, New Jersey -- not exactly Transylvania but close enough.  Katharine (Lynn Redgrave) and her young lover Rick (Harry Connick Jr.) are throwing a party and invites two other couples to share the scary festivities.

Uninvited guests include two ghosts, Kat's Great-Grandfather (William Hurt) and a flapper from the Roaring '20s (Samantha Mathis).

Rick brings along a storefront psychic (Tyne Daly) who predicts that by New Year's Eve one of the couples will break up.  Paranoia reigns and all the couples begin to self-destruct as the fateful eve approaches.

Harry gave Lynn a bouquet upon her return from a lightning-quick trip to L.A., where she won the Golden Globe Award.
