Story and World:

The Butterfly House is a mysterious manor built in 1962 by the occultist Pasquale Deneveaux. Its perverse angles and non-Euclidean geometry were designed to open doorways into the Wyrd, a vast interdimensional web of wondrous and terrifying realms. When an agent of the B.P.R.D. vanishes inside the mansion, Hellboy is sent to uncover the forbidden secrets hidden within. His investigation leads through strange planes filled with powerful creatures, forgotten godforms, magnificent treasures, and an ancient evil that wants to escape the darkest reaches of the Wyrd.
