While her husband is away, Penny is visited by an intruder who bursts through the door and demands to see her husband Harry. When Harry is nowhere to be seen, he tries to rape Penny. Picking up a nearby shotgun, she shoots him in the face.
When Harry returns, Penny explains what has happened. They both follow a trail of blood into the woods. Harry finds the body, turns it over and immediately recognises it as Charles Willoughby an old business associate.
Harry explains to Penny that they must bury the body and clean up the blood stains in the house because they have no licence for the shotgun. He also suggests that if Penny confesses, she may have to go back to a mental hospital.
while Harry buries the body and pushes Charles's Land Rover in the lake, Penny burns the blood spattered bedclothes.
As they sleep that night, Penny wakes up and looks outside to see Charles's Land Rover parked outside. She turns round to see, for a moment, Charles's blooded face.
The next day a policeman comes round and asks questions about a missing Charles Willoughby. Harry admits of knowing him but simply explains that he has seen no sight of him.
Harry explains to Penny that they must act normally. That night they got to a party at Margaret's, and at the party penny sees a vision of Charles. Penny becomes hysteric, and Harry has to carry her away
While browsing through an antique shop, Penny sees yet another vision of Charles. This time Harry loses patience, and when they arrive home he digs up Charles body and shows it to Penny.
Penny goes back to see Margaret, a psychic, and during a seance she manages to get through to Charles. Penny hears Charles voice saying, "I must be revenged". Margaret collapses. When she has recovered, she states that the spirit is too strong for her, and the only man who could help is the Swami Gupta Krishna...
