The House That Dripped Blood is another example of the portmanteau
horror movies made by Amicus Productions. When a Scotland Yard police inspector
in search of a missing horror film star visits the actor's home he discovers the
strange history of the house and its previous tenants. Among them is a writer
haunted by a serial killer of his own creation, a lonely recluse romantically
obsessed with a waxwork figure of Salome which bears a startling resemblance to
a woman from his past, and a strict father who is punished by his
witchcraft-adept young daughter. Finally, the inspector uncovers the story of
the missing horror film star and the mysterious vampire cloak which bestows
unusual powers upon its wearer.
