A decent creepy vampire tale. Dr Clayton (George Zucco) discovers that his twin brother Elwyn has gone into league with Satan. He secretly kills Elwyn but it is no use. Elwyn is now an un-dead vampire who has a taste for the blood of his niece Gayle (Mary Carlisle). Kate's beau David (Nedrick Young) at first suspects Dr Clayton of being behind Gayle's decline.
The town folk, a motley collection of gap toothed hicks, suspect Dr Clayton as being behind the dark forces taking place in the town...
The film has some good atmosphere, especially in the cemetery scenes, though the film isn't too original. It has all the usual elements of a vampire movie including a hunchback servant in Zolarr (Dwight Frye). The film needed a little more energy, Carlisle had an easy role in this, she spends most of the film in bed!
