在这部爱伦坡怪谈喜剧/悬疑/惊悚/恐怖片中,“B级片之王”罗杰·科尔曼（Roger Corman）改编自爱伦坡（Edgar Allan Poe）多个短篇故事的经典恐怖片。
Three stories adapted from the work of Edgar Allen Poe. A man and his daughter are reunited, but the blame for the death of his wife hangs over them, unresolved. A derelict challenges the local wine-tasting champion to a competition, but finds the man's attention to his wife worthy of more dramatic action. A man dying and in great pain agrees to be hypnotized at the moment of death, with unexpected consequences.
