Synopsis
Abel Olaya (Paul Naschy) has been a genre actor, barely subsisting on his retirement. Forgotten by his public and critics, he is forced to survive on his prophetic gift which comes from his other great passion: the occult sciences.
He and his old friend Victor (Antonio Mayans), take long strolls on the beach talking about the good old times. During one of these promenades, they find a human hand severed below the elbow with a peculiar symbol tatooed on the wrist.
Against Victor´s better judgement, Abel insists on investigating it´s origins. He is convinced that the odd wrist symbol orginates from before the times of Christ, the times of the Empusas, devilish hybrids -between vampires and mermaids, who were able to adapt at will, any kind of appearance.
Meanwhile back on the coast, the police are unable to find any explanation for the mutilated corpses which keep appearing on the beaches.
