After a night of drinking and gambling with his neighbor Edwin Lawrence, John Ferguson awakens in a cold sweat from a horrible nightmare in which he saw Lawrence being torn to shreds by some vicious beast.
On awakening, Ferguson finds a beautiful young woman, covered in blood and with no memory of how she got there or who she is, has climbed through his window, and that his vision of Lawrence's death is all too true!
Could this woman, whom he has fallen in love with, really be the brutal killer, or is it the demonic creature of his dream? Or are they one and the same?
