Synopsis
Dr. Gaunt worked the dark arts to create demonic minions. His activities began in Whispering Hollow, within the county of Creekmore. In 1770, a lightning strike kills Gaunt and burns his house to the ground. Two centuries later, a research historian named Rand rebuilds the property using the surviving stonework. He and his assistant Betty move in. Gaunt enters the house in the form of a black dog. Soon, he is active once more. Dr. Gaunt chases Betty and Rand into the cemetery. The ghosts of his 18th century murdered victims and lightning prove to be his demise.
