He has been cursed on one of his adventures, leaving him in constant need of medical attention. He summons an old colleague, Dr. Hamilton (Gig Young) to his home to help him with a case involving the Cyon family (in co-operation with his London informant Dr. Qualus). Dr. Hamilton does not believe in the occult and thinks that Sebastian and his housekeeper Lilith (Majel Barrett) are playing tricks on him when he witnesses unusual events. As the pair are getting reacquainted a lady who claims to be Anitra Cyon (Ann Bell) unexpectedly visits and asks Sebastian to desist from investrigating her family. '''Sebastian recognises that this person is not Anitra Cyon, but rather a [[Succubus]] sent to stop Sebastian from investigaing the case. He defeats her using the Apocryphal Book of Tobit and then sets out with Ham to the airport where they are flown by Mitri Cyon (John Hurt) to London.''' The journey is a dangerous one when the engines of the plane fail, something which Sebastian claims is as a result of supernatural intervention. | ||
