Larry and Barbara move to a random island so that architect Larry can resolve some issues with a condo construction. Larry's friend Del manages to get them a super cheap, beautiful, hill top mansion/castle. Is that a problem? Well, only if you mind living in a home where people have been murdered and is supposedly haunted. Good god! Warning number one.
Del and the uber tan Dr. Frank Albanos tell them the mansion isn't really haunted. It's just a legend based on murders that have occurred in the home - the home which has been vacant for one hundred years. Warning number two.
But Del's date - who is a local - listens to them talk about the house, freaks out, screams that the legend is true and runs out the door in a panic. Warning number three.
Barbara starts seeing things, getting confused, acting weird and fainting. The local faith healer tells Larry she's got a problem. The shifty Dr. Albanos - who's up to something evil which is never revealed, damn you movie! - agrees that something is very wrong with Barbara.
Larry is more annoyed than concerned until he comes home and discovers Babs has a case of hotdog finger. Props to the make up people as her bloated finger is disturbing. By that time all hell breaks loose and Babs possession by a long dead witch is well underway. And guess what? That damn witch doesn't want to give up her new lease on life or Babs body.
This is a bit slow moving complete with glowing green laser eyes, and a not at all threatening devil statue. Who keeps a devil in their house? Not cool, dude. John Saxon and Linda Day George do their best with the material, but it's dated.

| Oddly enough the necklace has nothing to do with the evil. |

| Why are they keeping this? |
 |
| That is a nasty case of hotdog finger. |

| Why does this remind me of a soap opera? |

| Laser eyes! |
