Lo psicologo americano Holden, recatosi in Inghilterra per un congresso di parapsicologia, viene a sapere che un suo collega è morto in circostanze misteriose. I collaboratori del deceduto sembrano crede che questo infausto incidente sia opera di forze sovrannaturali ma Holden non vuole crede a queste superstizioni. Le indagini lo porteranno a doversi ricredere.
