A classic monster-revenge tale that trades on supernatural dread and the curse of desecration, with a shambling mummy as instrument of retribution across continents.

A high priest of Karnak travels to America with the living mummy Kharis (Lon Chaney Jr.) to kill all those who had desecrated the tomb of the Egyptian princess Ananka thirty years earlier.
