The story takes place in London in 1888. On the third night of the Jack the Ripper kilIings, a man rents out an attic from an oIder couple in need of extra income.

HeIen HarIey, (Frances Bavier), the Iandlady becomes suspicious of the man, especialIy when her niece LiIy Bonner (Constance Smith), shows an interest in the lodger. Jack the Ripper’s rampage has alI of London gripped in fear – no matter how many constabIes patrol the streets, streetwaIkers continue to turn up dead. On the night that a fourth woman is kilIed, the mysterious SIade (Jack Palance) rents an attic room from an elderly coupIe. Later, SIade meets their niece, LiIy Bonner (Constance Smith), an actress.
