"La fiaccola sotto il moggio" by Gabriele D'Annunzio is a tragedy written in 1905.

Set in an Abruzzo castle during the 1820s, the play follows the disintegration of the noble Di Sangro family. Count Tibaldo has abandoned his wife Monica and daughter Gigliola for Angizia, a cunning sorceress who manipulates the household with poison and dark arts. As family members succumb to physical ailments and moral corruption, the disinherited Gigliola discovers terrible secrets and plots revenge, unaware that fate has already sealed everyone's doom in this tale of ancient curses and tragic destiny.
