Hidden in the English countryside is the eerie estate of the Phantomhive family, known as the cold and ruthless "Queen's Watchdog" as well as the head of London's underworld. After a tragedy kills the Earl and his wife, many are surprised when their young son, Ciel, takes over as the new Earl of the Phantomhive house. Initially, he is seen as just a child with odd servants, but people soon learn it is unwise to challenge Ciel and his demonic butler, Sebastian. Set in the late 19th century, Kuroshitsuji follows the pair as they confront countless mysteries and dangers that torment England and threaten the Queen, all while uncovering the truth behind Ciel's parents' death.
