Synopsis

An eminent Egyptologist has purchased a precious stone stolen from an Egyptian tomb. He is a great believer in the ancient gods of the people whose history he studies. When he is buried, he has the stone with him and this, he hopes, will appease the gods after death. But the stone is stolen from his tomb and the Professor is not dead, but in a trance. He returns as a ghoul, furious at the theft, and anxious to seek his revenge on those responsible.
