It is getting dark. John [Brian Deacon] and Harriet [Ally Faulkner]

mysterious women in the road and pull up beside a deserted
castle where they intend to pass the night. For days they camp
there, not knowing that during the days the two women, Fran
[Marianne Morris] and Miriam [Anulka], lie asleep in the cemetery
while at night they pick up men and take him to their castle.



There, they feed them wine, have passionate sex, and then stab
them to death while drinking their blood. The only exception is
Ted [Murray Brown], who manages to survive for three nights in
a row. One evening Ted escapes. He runs to the camper to enlist
John and Harriet's help. When John goes to start the car, Fran and
Miriam get him. When Harriet goes to check on John, the girls get
her. Ted apparently gets away.
