Ominous prophet Dr. Schreck (Peter Cushing) informs five train passengers -- including art critic Franklyn Marsh (Christopher Lee) and physician Bob Carroll (Donald Sutherland) -- about the grisly details of their imminent deaths in this anthology of eerie vignettes. Schreck tells Marsh that he will be maimed; that Carroll's new bride has a supernatural secret life; and that architect Jim Dawson (Neil McCallum) will be attacked by a werewolf.
