Synopsis
Revenus d'un long séjour en Afrique, les frères Markham s'installent aux abords de Londres. Julian retrouve sa fiancée Elizabeth, mais Edward, à demi-fou et défiguré par des sorciers africains, reste enfermé dans les combles de la maison. Pour le délivrer, Trench, l'avocat de la famille, met au point un stratagème. Il s'agit de droguer Edward afin de le faire passer pour mort, et de venir l'exhumer après son enterrement. Mais c'était sans compter avec le docteur Neuhartt, qui dérobe les cadavres du cimetière pour pratiquer ses macabres expériences anatomiques...
