The Whip and the Body

A vengeful nobleman's spirit tries to rekindle his twisted passion with his former lover, now bound to marry his brother against her will.

Nobleman Kurt Menliff returns to his family's seaside castle to congratulate his brother on his marriage to Kurt's former lover, Nevenka. However, his presence is met with hatred and fear from his father and a servant, who blame him for seducing and killing her daughter. Meanwhile, Kurt's cousin is indifferent to his return. The next day, Kurt meets Nevenka alone on the beach and engages in a twisted encounter, but she goes missing that night. When Kurt is found stabbed with the same dagger used to murder Giorgia's daughter, the family becomes embroiled in a web of suspicion and deceit, while Nevenka is haunted by Kurt's ghost.
