Short description

While dabbling in Satanism, Count Karstein resurrects Mircalla Karnstein who initiates him into vampirism. As a rash of deaths afflicts the village, Gustav the head of Puritan group leads his men to seek out and destroy the pestilence. One of his twin nieces has become inflicted with the witchcraft but Gustav's zeal and venom has trapped the innocent Maria, threatening her with a tortuous execution, whilst Frieda remains free to continue her orgy of evil.

What's left behind the scenes

The film reused the same sets as Robert Young's horror film 'Circus of Vampires' (1972).
Mary Collinson (1952-2021) and Madeline Collinson (1952-2014) lived in Malta and still spoke with a noticeable Maltese accent. Hammer Film Productions Limited decided to simply redub their characters, which was standard practice.
