The Ghost of Causton Abbey Plot
The first episode of Midsomer Murders series 20 – The Ghost of Causton Abbey takes us to 1535. Causton Abbey is a hive of activity as the monks prepare for Brother Jozef’s execution. After being accused of poisoning the monks’ beer, Brother Jozef has been sentenced to death by being boiled alive. As he is lowered into a bubbling boiling vat, he curses the Abbey for all eternity.
Nearly 500 years later, the building is in the process of restoration thanks to its new owners, sisters Emani and Faiza, along with the help of Emani’s husband Paul. Despite its new décor, there is still a sense amongst the villagers that the land is cursed, a concern voiced most publicly by Paul’s mother Irene.
Fears of the ‘cursed’ land seem to be justified when Irene arrives at the brewery the next day to find someone has been boiled to death in a kettle vat of beer, echoing the death of Brother Jozef!
