It's every young couple's dream to own a place of their very own. So when Walter and Anna take the plunge and buy a house, the fact that it was a knock-down bargain doesn't seem to worry them.

But their dream home soon reveals itself to be a nightmare, where if something could go wrong it does, where disasters are just the beginning and where rotten floors collapse to reveal the ravenous money pit!
