Clifford Pyncheon's (Vincent Price) father, Gerald (Gilbert Emery), decides that in his dying days, the family's mansion must be sold to clear their debts. Gerald also believes it will remove the family of a curse – a result of their many misdeeds over the years that allowed their once-prominent lifestyle. However, Gerald's other son, Jaffrey (George Sanders), has different ideas as to what should be done with the property, and frames Clifford for murder in an attempt to keep the mansion.

Audio Commentary by Film Historian Troy Howarth - Howarth delivers a dry, witty, and occasionally funny chat about the film's production and reception. He gives mini-bios for practically all eleven players in the cast and what other movies they appeared in. I would have liked more historical anecdotes (if Howarth could have located them) but he doesn't waste a second of time.
