Christopher Maitland (Cushing) is offered the skull by Marco (Wymark), an unscrupulous dealer in antiques and curiosities. He learns that the skull has been stolen from Sir Matthew Phillips (Lee), a friend and fellow collector. Sir Matthew, however, does not want to recover it, having escaped its evil influence. At his sleazy lodgings, Marco dies in mysterious circumstances. Maitlands finds Marco's body and takes possession of the skull. He in turns falls victim as the skull drives him to hallucinations and madness.
