Eric Draven and his fiancee are brutally murdered on Devil's Night, the night before Halloween. A year later, Eric returns from the underworld guided by a crow. Initially with no memories of what happened, he returns to his old loft where he recalls the memories and pain of death. Eric paints the features of a happy, distorted clown on his face and sets off on a hunt to get revenge on his killers. The bandits are killed one by one, until Eric, with the help of Sergeant Albrecht, meets the biggest criminal in town, Top Dollar and his sister, who has managed to catch the crow in the meantime. She discovered that the crow's (bird) suffering would be transposed to Eric, thus putting his immortality in jeopardy.
