A few miles from Boston, Massachusetts, Kidd the Pirate buried a great amount of treasure.

Kidd made a deal with the devil to keep his treasure safe.

Kidd was hung in Boston for being a pirate.

In 1727, a miserly man named Tom Walker lives near the area with his wife. They are not popular with their neighbors and they fight often.

After spending the day in a distant part of the neighborhood, Tom Walker takes a shortcut back home through a swamp. He reaches an abandoned Indian fort.

after kicking a nearby skull left over from the Indian wars with colonists Tom angers a tall man covered in soot who had apparently been watching him.

After a long conversation on the way home, Old Scratch told Tom that he has taken a liking to him and will allow him to acquire Kidd the Pirate's treasure on certain conditions.

As a promise to stand by his word, Old Scratch presses his finger into Tom's forehead, leaving a black, burned mark.

Tom can't help but share the secret with his wife, who is immediately enticed by the promise of gold.

Tom tells her he isn't planning on taking the deal. Determined to follow through on the deal herself, she takes all the valuables in their house as bribes for Old Scratch and sets off to find him. She never returns.

NO!

Tom set out to find both his wife and the valuables she left with, and instead found her heart and liver tied up to a tree in her checked apron.

Tom decides he wants the treasure he was promised, and he sets out to find Old Scratch once again. The two haggle for a while, and Old Scratch insists that if he is to give Tom the money, Tom must use it in service to the devil.
