Haunted by recurrent dreams, Carl Milton, a painter, wanders aimlessly in the desolate countryside. When a black wolf-dog from one of his sketches materializes, he follows it to a mysterious farmhouse, where he meets an old woman. Weary from his journeys, and mesmerized by the likeness of the place to the haunting visions of his dreams, Carl accepts the woman’s offer of temporary abode and employment. In the course of his stay, the world of his dreams and the reality of the countryside mix, leading him into the borderlands between the living and the dead.
