Cry of the Banshee

Lord Edward Whitman, a 16th-century magistrate in England, organizes the people of his hamlet against Oona, the leader of a cult of Druids. When Whitman captures and kills two of Oona's children, Oona swears revenge against Lord Whitman and his entire family. She summons a demon which assumes the form of Roderick, a handsome young man who finds employment in the Whitman household as a groom and soon falls in love with the magistrate's daughter Maureen. Lord Whitman has meanwhile located the Druids' worship site and plans to eliminate the cult at their next ceremony. The night of the ceremony, Oona returns Roderick to his banshee form and sends him to kill Maureen; soon afterwards, Lord Whitman's men arrive and murder Oona and her followers. When Whitman returns to his manor, he finds Maureen on the verge of death; Roderick comes out of hiding and attacks Lord Whitman, but Maureen kills the banshee. Whitman then puts Maureen and his son Harry in a carriage to leave the cursed district and returns to assure himself of Roderick's death, but he finds the coffin empty. Hurrying to the carriage, he finds Harry and Maureen murdered. The coachman reveals himself to be Roderick and rides off with Lord Whitman inside, thus completing Oona's revenge.
