When detective Jimmy Kelly and his fiancée, Marjorie, check into a secluded inn and stumble upon a double murder involving dead bodies covered in animal bites, they start trying to figure out who or what was behind these attacks.
The usual ingredients of an old dark house mystery are present - the eerie atmosphere, a group of people with a secret and a ghastly murder, and then add some comic moments via some banter to the mix, and you get a typical entry to the genre, however it's rather standard stuff that is just passable. Having said that, the best thing in this film is the villain doing some scene chewing at the end - melodramatics at its best - and Joan Woodbury who plays a sultry mystic who keeps reminding everyone that they are doomed.
