THE STORY: Dan and Lisa Morgan are honeymooning in England, and they visit an ancient castle with their tour group. Suspicious run high when they suddenly find themselves trapped in the forbidding Egyptian room of the castle, and are greeted by a voice announcing that he is the reincarnation of Osiris, and that they have been chosen as sacrifices to the god, Thoth. Their abductor has provided food and sleeping accommodations, but the first order of business is to protect themselves from his mad scheme (and perhaps each other), which leads to a series of chilling (and often funny) events. But terror mounts as the elusive Osiris strikes first one and then another—until it becomes evident that he must be one of them. The final outcome masks his true identity until the last possible moment, and will hold the audience breathless until the truth is known and the killer brought to justice.
