Full Plot Details

When Roger Balfour is found shot dead in his London home, his death is declared a suicide by Inspector Burke of Scotland Yard, even though the executor of Balfour's estate, Sir James Hamlin, insists his friend never would have taken his own life. Five years later, the abandoned Balfour house comes to life again with the arrival of two sinister-looking tenants: a fiendish-looking man with pointed teeth, bulging eyes and a tall beaver hat, and a pale young woman in a long gown. The presence of the strangers prompts Sir James, who lives next door, to call in Inspector Burke again. Also living in the Hamlin household are the other people who were also present in Balfour's house the night he died: Sir James' nephew, Arthur Hibbs; the late Balfour's now-grown daughter, Lucille; and Williams, the butler. Burke expresses skepticism about Sir James' suspicions that the new neighbors might have been involved in Balfour's death, until strange things start happening: Balfour's body disappears from its tomb. The new maid, Smithson, tells a terrifying tale of being menaced in Lucille's bedroom by the stranger in the beaver hat. And a man spotted inside the Balfour house by Burke and Sir James looks distinctly like the late Roger Balfour. A skittish Arthur becomes convinced the neighbors are vampires. Burke takes Lucille aside, and tells her he doesn't believe her father committed suicide. He asks her to trust him. Burke also has a private talk with Arthur. Burke uses hypnosis to put Arthur into a trance, but learns nothing new about Balfour's death. That night, someone fires a shot into Arthur's room, but Arthur isn't there; instead, it's Burke who's slightly wounded. Lucille is abducted by the beaver-hatted man and the butler and brought to her former home. Sir James, acting at Burke's instruction, also shows up at the Balfour house; he's met out front by the beaver-hatted man, who puts him into a hypnotic trance. Arthur breaks into the Balfour house in an attempt to rescue Lucille; he's caught by Burke and a couple of detectives and locked away. It turns out the man with the beaver hat and pointed teeth was really a disguised Inspector Burke, who was aided at times by a double; Smithson, the maid, is an assistant detective; the mysterious young woman, a stage performer working for the police. Under Burke's hypnosis, Sir James re-creates his actions the night Roger Balfour died, with Lucille and the butler, Williams, playing themselves, and Burke's double playing the part of Balfour. It turns out Sir James shot and killed Balfour and made the death appear a suicide after Balfour rejected Sir James as a future husband for young Lucille. Sir James is brought out of his trance and arrested by Burke. The mystery of Balfour's death solved, Lucille and Arthur, who have come to realize how much they love each other, are now free to marry.

Movie Reviews

Classic Film and Television - 7/10 by Michael E. GrostRestored stills version is surprisingly good entertainment, showing off Lon Chaney's colorful gift of disguise.
User Review - 10/10 by Andrew SI got to watch the still photo remake of this lost film. It was very creepy, and super weird. You get a sense of fear thoughout your body, even when just watching the still images of this movie.
User Review - 8/10 by Katie RIt's a complete shame that this movie is lost, but TCM's reconstruction is really excellent.
User Review - 8/10 by Mr PThis is one of the most famous lost pictures in history. However, I recently viewed a restored version that tells the story as best it can using still photos. The story and music carry you along really well. And there are so many production photos that you don't miss out on any scenes...it leaves your imagination to create the motion. It's very much like reading a book but in an entirely different way. Lon Chaney's makeup as the vampire in this is (in my opinion) the best he's ever had. It's really horrifying what he could do with a simple makeup kit. Very creepy. Not the strongest story as the end kind of confuses, but still a masterful Chaney classic.
User Review - 6/10 by Jake BIt's cool to see the restoration, but I tend to believe the testimony of people who actually saw this in the theater and say it was laughable.
User Review - 6/10 by Graceann MThis is perhaps the most sought-after lost film on the planet, and TCM attempted to restore it through the cunning use of stills and music. The effort is a commendable one, and well worth watching for the historic factor.
User Review - 6/10 by Ian SI thoroughly enjoyed this restored version, but I can't give it a higher rating, simply because the original film was destroyed years ago.
User Review - 6/10 by Ryan HThree stars for Lon Chaney and the most effective use of makeup in a horror film I have ever seen... the way he looks in those stills is creepy enough to the point where I almost had to stop watching it because I kept looking over my shoulder...
User Review - 6/10 by Trent MThe orignal copy was destoryed in a fire but photos were taken during the production. So it was basically a hour long slide show silent movie. I thought the movie would basically be about a vampire but it had a tiwst in it, like like most of Tod Browings films. The vampire was really creepy looking.
User Review - 6/10 by Steve BThis would certainly have been a top flick but only stills remains of the original... Chaney seemed good in a dual role and this was his biggest success with director Tod Browning.
