John Reginald Christie, un uomo di mezza età che vive con la moglie in un miserabile sobborgo londinese, nasconde sotto un aspetto mite e tranquillo una tremenda follia omicida. Nel 1944, spacciandosi per medico, ha attirato in casa propria una donna, l'ha fatta fuori e ne ha sepolto il corpo nel giardino. Qualche anno dopo, terminato il conflitto mondiale, Christie affitta una parte della sua abitazione a una coppia di sposi continuando le sue imprese criminose.
