Tragic Ceremony
Four young people, including rich kid Bill, Joe, Fred, and Jane, knock on the door of a remote villa when their dune buggy runs out of gas following a lovely sailing trip. Bill had gifted the attractive Jane a pearl necklace with a reputed paranormal background earlier in the day, and this later opens a can of worms. They are invited to spend the night in the mansion owned by Lord and Lady Alexander, who are hosting a ceremony attended by a group of eccentrics in black robes that evening. Jane leaves her sleeping chamber in the nighttime, presumably in a trance, and is drawn to a sacrifice altar where robed houseguests hover over her. As the young woman is about to be stabbed, three of her friends rush to her aid, but they are also witnesses to a chaotic mass murder and flee with emotions of guilt and doubt.
