While the arguments about the inheritance ensue, a typhoon traps all eighteen people on the island. The family then finds a mysterious letter from a person claiming to be Kinzo's alchemy councilor, the [[Witch Species|Golden Witch]], [[The Divine Comedy|Beatrice]]. Beatrice claims that she has been summoned by Kinzo to claim the inheritance, as the family has been deemed unworthy of it. [[Game Between Heirs|Unless someone solves the riddle of the epitaph on her portrait]] [[Race Against the Clock|before midnight on October 6th]] and becomes the family successor, Beatrice will claim everything that the family owns, including the ten tons of gold that Kinzo claims will be given to the successor.

Part of the ''[[When They Cry]]'' series, which also includes ''[[Higurashi no Naku Koro ni]]''.
The series currently{{when}} consists of a [[Visual Novel|sound novel]], a manga, and an anime. The sound novel is 8 Episodes in length, along with two fandiscs, ''Umineko no {{color|red|Na}}ku Koro ni: {{color|gold|Tsubasa}}'' (''When The Seagulls {{color|red|C}}ry: {{color|gold|Wings}}'') and ''Umineko no {{color|red|Na}}ku Koro ni: {{color|aqua|Hane}}'' (''When The Seagulls Cry: {{color|aqua|Feathers}}'') containing extra short stories called TIPS that don't fit into the main story. Each Episode is adapted into a manga, with the first four Episodes completed so far{{when}} and the last four (and ''Tsubasa'') still ongoing{{when}} publication. In addition, the anime adaptation by [[Studio DEEN]] spans 26 episodes, but only covers the first four arcs.
The entire novel has also been ported to the [[Play Station 3]] for a remake, complete with voice acting, remade sprites and CGs. The first four novels were released as ''Umineko no {{color|red|Na}}ku Koro ni ~ Rondo of Witches and Reason'', and the last four novels were released as ''Umineko no {{color|red|Na}}ku Koro ni {{red|Chiru}} ~ Nocturne of Truth and Illusions''.

* [[Curtain Camouflage]] - Jessica in Banquet
* [[Cuteness Proximity]] - The Stakes. {{spoiler|Sakutaro}}. Result: [[The Glomp|glompage]] and a lot of [[Squee]].
* [[Cycle of Revenge|Cycle of Hatred]] - Too many to mention, to the point where there's even a character who exists as an incarnation of it.
* [[Darkness-Induced Audience Apathy]] - {{spoiler|Both [[In-Universe]] and invoked. In fact, it's largely the point of the final episode, which points out that the Ushiromiya family could not have been nasty to each other all the time and that the previous episodes more or less both showed the family at their worst and that said worst is more or less only the theories of a bunch of gossipers.}}
* [[Dark Reprise]] - [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xAupQUUglkU goldenslaughterer] is already a pretty dark BGM to begin with, since it plays during the more cruel deaths, but it gets a darker and more intense remix as [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=euezX9D3aDE the_executioner] in EP7, which plays during the fight between Will and {{spoiler|Bernkastel}}.
