The remote, dark house hides a terrible secret. From the nursery a gramophone merrily churns out a happy summer song, but there is no child. Daniel died in an accident, and his mother is tormented by grief and guilt. She keeps seeing Daniel, but also his frightening fantasy figure Little Man, with the sharp, gleaming razor. A mysterious visitor appears out of the rain. He knows the secret.
