Summary of Night of the Eagle
Unfortunate scientist Norman Taylor (Peter Wyngarde) discovers that his wife (Janet Blair) may be a reborn witch. Although his skeptical mind allows for no such occurrence, he becomes increasingly suspicious as the voodoo activity around his household grows more prevalent. Folks are murdered, eagles disrupt the good doctor's study, and general havoc is unleased. It's up to Taylor to figure out who the real culprit of all the strange phenomena is. From the same team that brought you THE CONQUEROR WORM, THE PIT AND THE PENDULUM, and other midnite horror classics comes this adaption of Fritz Leiber's CONJURE WIFE. (The Gothic horror novel had been previously adapted in 1944, as WEIRD WOMAN).
