Evil sorcerer Boris Karloff has turned wizard Peter Lorre into a raven, who seeks Vincent Price's assistance to be turned back into a man. Lorre tells Price that his wife, long thought dead, is with Karloff. A showdown will occur at Karloff's castle. No terror; silly comedy is Poe in name only.

The Time magazine review of this film describes Hazel Court as "a lusty redhead... with a cleavage that could comfortably accommodate the collected works of Edgar Allan Poe and a bottle of his favorite booze besides."
