A scientist obsessed with communicating with his dead wife builds a machine for brain waves, and turns to a medium.

Sinekatalog’s take

Edward Dmytryk's horror, with Boris Karloff, is a modest, atmospheric B picture and Karloff is sympathetic.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
