WILL ANITA LOSE HER HUSBAND TO THE GHOST WITH THE PORCELAIN FACE? When they inherit an ancient mansion, Anita and her husband Charles move in. From the very moment of their arrival at Shorecliff, Anita notices the change that comes over her husband. Charles turns into a sullen and brooding stranger. He becomes obsessed with the legend of Amanda, a vain and beautiful murderess who kept forever young by wearing a mask of porcelain. Though dead 100 years, Amanda seems to have taken complete control of Charles. When Anita is suddenly confronted by a ghostly figure with a porcelain face, she knows Amanda has returned from the grave to destroy them.
