In this gory horror film set in a creepy insane asylum, a young doctor employs a medium to conjure up the spirit of his partner. Unfortunately, the late doctor was executed for a murder he didn't commit and comes back with murderous vengeance on his mind. His ghost is accompanied by that of his assistant, a fellow horribly disfigured and killed by acid. The assistant who plays the violin, falls in love with the new nurse, a woman who has come to the hospital to claim an inheritance. Unfortunately, before he kills her, the horrible assistant wants her to look as dreadful as he does. ~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide
