The publisher drops by Norliss' house, finding it deserted, with a large number of audio cassette tapes left behind, containing Norliss' notes. Playing the first tape, the publisher hears the story of Ellen Cort (Angie Dickinson). Late one night she investigates her recently deceased husband's art studio. There she is attacked and her dog slain by what she maintains was her husband (Nick Dimitri). Despite taking a point blank shotgun blast, however, the police find no body. Norliss promises to investigate the incident. Meanwhile, a young women has been slain and found drained of blood. Cort, who had a terminal illness, bargained for eternal life from the grave. In return, he is to create a statue for the evil god Sargoth (Bob Schott) to inhabit - using clay impregnated with the victim's missing blood - allowing him a physical form with which to enter our world».
