Shortly before he is to wed, millionaire John Willis is visited by Dr. Harry S. Blair, a psychiatrist who informs him that years before he was married to Nancy, John's wife-to-be, and warns him that she is mentally unbalanced.
Blair then relates the following story: After a whirlwind romance in Florida, Blair marries Nancy and starts a psychiatric practice in New York. One day, artist Norman Clyde comes to his office and tells him that an innocent man is about to be executed in Sing Sing Prison and that Nancy is the cause of his unjust incarceration. A distraught Clyde then explains himself to a curious Blair:
Three years before, Clyde meets Nancy, whose maiden name was Monks, when she enrolls in his art class. The moody Clyde soon falls in love with Nancy's honest charm and beauty. Nancy, a secretary, introduces Clyde to her boss, millionaire Andrew Bonner, and persuades Bonner to showcase Clyde's paintings at one of his private showings. To Nancy's delight, Clyde's painting, a depiction of the tragic figure Cassandra for which she modeled, wins first prize at the showing. The evening is perfect until an expensive bracelet is stolen from a guest, and Clyde later finds it in Nancy's purse. After Clyde confronts a confused Nancy about the theft, she relates the following story to explain her behavior:
As a young girl, Nancy lives with her housekeeper mother in the lavish Willis home and plays with Karen, the Willises' little daughter. Although Karen wants to invite Nancy to her upcoming birthday party, Mrs. Willis refuses to allow the lower-class Nancy to attend. A true friend, Karen promises to give Nancy one of the pins her guests are receiving. When Karen realizes there are no extra pins, however, she offers Nancy the beautiful locket she has just received from her mother. Nancy's subsequent joy is soon crushed when Mrs. Willis demands that she return the locket. Later, the locket is discovered missing, and Nancy is accused of theft. Although Nancy's mother soon finds the locket in Karen's dress, Mrs. Willis refuses to believe Nancy and forces her to "confess."
The adult Nancy then admits to Clyde that this childhood humiliation caused her unconscious desire to steal the bracelet at the party. After a forgiving Clyde returns the bracelet anonymously, he and Nancy continue their romance until the next party at the Bonners'. Suspecting that the absent Nancy is spending the evening in Bonner's arms, Clyde leaves the party to look for her and sees her exiting Mrs. Bonner's bedroom just after two gunshots are fired. Bonner is found murdered, and Mrs. Bonner's diamond necklace, stolen. Although Nancy and Clyde are questioned, valet Myron Dexter is eventually found guilty and is sentenced to die. Clyde, however, strongly suspects Nancy, but she angrily maintains her innocence and leaves for Florida.
Back in his office, Blair defends Nancy to Clyde but invites him to his house that evening. When confronted, Nancy denies everything and tells Blair that Clyde is merely jealous. The next day, Dexter is executed, and a guilt-ridden Clyde jumps from Blair's office window to his death.
To avoid scandal, Blair and Nancy move to England, and after World War II breaks out, Blair volunteers his medical services, while Nancy becomes an ambulance driver. Expressing concern over Blair's health, Nancy insists that they take a vacation at Lord and Lady Wyndham's manor house. Just as they are leaving, Blair learns that one of Lady Wyndham's valuable jewels has been stolen. Blair suspects Nancy but is unable to prove anything until a bomb destroys their flat and reveals her cache of stolen jewels.
Although confronted directly, Nancy continues to deny any guilt and divorces Blair after he suffers a nervous breakdown. Back in John's study, Blair, like Clyde before him, tries to convince John to abandon Nancy, who now uses the name Patton. John, however, believes Nancy when she tells him that Blair is still suffering from his breakdown.
Moments before the wedding is to start, Nancy's future mother-in-law, the unsuspecting Mrs. Willis, gives her the same locket that she once took away, and tells her that it is a precious family heirloom. The locket causes Nancy to be overcome with guilt, and she collapses at the altar in hysterics. As Nancy is later taken away to an institution, John sadly realizes the truth of Blair's story, but determines to see Nancy through her crisis.
什么鬼玩意呢，驱魔没系统，故事很枯燥，没有哪个厉害的恐怖片 是靠1、2个小创意就起口碑的哇
男主拿着一把锥子就莽进了鬼屋，结果落了个死都不知道什么时候死的，也是醉了。容嬷嬷式驱魔，涂鸦式封印，黑胶手套以及人格分裂猛鬼简直我了个去~
感觉三万年没看过这么好笑的电影了……真的笑死了……想想这部剧本写起来会多有意思呀！“疯蝴蝶瞬间移动来到了老大身后”之类的。（而且配合ED画面回顾这三部曲，更觉得宫九这几年最好笑的几个梗都贡献给了这部……）
tvb擅长这类题材，但可能电影无法保罗如此宏大的剧情……可能拍成电视剧更好，当然方中信演的律师从把法律当作正义，又当成生意，再次变成正义，转变的有点快
以为家人在看tvb 完后说是电影 (･_･;
结局好烂居然没有主角光环，男主活生生把自己给玩死了
21_160。概念不错，拍得是真的不行，吓人手法也是老一套，属于有点浪费吧
前期中规中矩，后期强行正能量，没有电影质感，像电视剧或网大，多一星给廖叔
剧情很烂，还不如TVB的一般律政剧流畅，可惜了很多好演员。
④双主角互相影响设定挺好 将理想主义与金钱主义结合一起 还有好多理想主义者的黑化
现在连鬼也有多重人格了，人类的内卷太可恶了🖕
一法师就拿着金刚杵和恶灵贴身肉搏😅（听掉地上的声，杵还是空心的）
如果最后不出现雷大律师造假证据我就打6分了，整个故事有点俗套有点幼稚。制造的冲突也挺老套的，新人律师抱着所谓的信仰可是却在遇到问题时马上缴械投降，以此来对比突出出方中信饰演的雷有辉表面已经老油条实则才是内心信仰拉满。工具人不过如此了。
被害女生那么有钱有权还做三，恶意不要太大。
鲍起静那场奶孙戏，我很感动。智叔和曾老师船上的戏，也是超级赞。曾老师一开始奸，后面以利益为导向的转变，我觉得很有表演层次。年轻一辈是有很多不足，剧情上的转折也确实过于简化处理，但我还是很喜欢这部电影，拍得很实在。
额，就是逻辑啥的，不是很通，总之看着不是很紧张，也完全不恐怖，无感的恐怖片。
很奇怪的片子。律师为什么要故意吧咖啡杯碎片放在吸尘袋，如果吸尘袋里明明有真正凶手的dna？
(远超预期的)好看！算是矮子里面拔高个儿吧，这两年恐怖片普遍不出彩，所以看到不错的手就会很松。以及金康宇，本人二百分之一的老公，bless you。
杀人版昆池岩，真够乱的，所以最后男主早死了吧。忠告：不要作死
还不如TVB的电视剧，结尾反转勉强算是亮点吧
