- Synopsis:
Following The Horrible Dr. Hichcock, Italian horror master Riccardo Freda and scream queen Barbara Steele reunite with 'The Ghost'. In 1910 Scotland Margaret (Steele) and her lover, Dr. Charles Livingstone (Peter Baldwin), plot to murder her wealthy, wheelchair-bound husband, Dr. John Hichcock, hoping to claim his fortune. But after John's death, their carefully laid plans begin to unravel when his inheritance vanishes and terrifying supernatural events plague the isolated estate. As ghostly apparitions, séances and mounting paranoia drive the lovers toward madness, they are forced to question whether John's vengeful spirit has truly returned from the grave-or whether a far more sinister deception is at work. Riccardo Freda's Gothic chiller blends murder, betrayal and spectral terror with unforgettable atmosphere... - Actors:
