•
Il resoconto di una notte passata in un castello abitato dal demonio. Agli inizi degli anni settanta in Italia il genere horror gotico, con qualche venatura sexy, era di “moda” e così furono prodotti innumerevoli pellicole con queste caratteristiche; il film in questione è uno dei peggiori realizzati.
