My poor Josette she was the love of my life and to just throw it all away over an experiment was inconceivable but I did. Now I must live the rest of my days as a lonely old man down in a dusty old lab with my assistant Gregor” said Dr. Van Lewton.“It's been ten lonely years with a bunch of botched experiments that seem to go nowhere. I thought I'd give it one more shot then all of a sudden there was a knock on the door. I said to Gregor, "Who could that be, no one has been at my castle since my beautiful wife Josette left me on that stormy night. I pleaded with her to stay but she had all she could take and slammed the door behind her and left without saying goodbye. Josette enters Dr. Van Lewton's life once more but when a carriage ride goes bad and Dr. Van Lewton loses his hand from the tragic accident a surgical procedure goes horribly wrong and that's when terror reigns back down on a quiet little town that had just got over a spree of killings.
