Early 19th century French soldier (Jack Nicholson) refuses to accept a supernatural explanation for the strange woman he sees about the castle of an old, solitary baron (Boris Karloff). Is she a real woman or the ghost of a murder victim? Ultimately, Corman, and writers Leo Gordon and Jack Hill, refuse either to validate or to refute his skepticism, leaving us with a nonsensical and unsatisfying have-it-both-ways sort of story. Slow-moving and monotonous. Sandra Knight, Nicholson's (pregnant) wife at the time, plays the mysterious woman.
