Summary:

The twin brother of a young woman (Roma) has recently been murdered. Her grief makes her easy prey for a corrupt medium who arranges a seance to conjure up her brother's supposedly troubled soul. Meanwhile, a murderess accused of strangling her lovers awaits execution in the electric chair. Before she dies she agrees to donate her body to a scientist for his unique life-after-death research. Eerily, the doctor's first experiment on the now-dead woman occurs at precisely the same time as the seance. In a twist of fate, Roma becomes possessed by the murderess' wicked spirit, and in a race against time, the doctor and Roma's fiancé struggle to undo the horrible curse in this inventive ghost story.
