Moody story of widow Stanwyck showing up at the mansion of her husband's family, tangling with brother Flynn who controls the household with a steel grip. Flynn, a doctor, keeps a secret laboratory in a closed wing, from which screams are heard in the middle of the night. Is it her supposedly dead husband? Stanwyck climbs rooftops, jumps through windows and climbs fences in her search for the truth. Flynn, cast against type, is cold, calculating and completely untrustworthy. The ending gives a somewhat unsatisfactory explanation, but it is still a fun ride.
