City of the Dead

On the recommendation of professor Ellen Driscoll (played by Christopher Lee), a young female student Nan Barlow (played by Venetia Stevenson) went to the fictional town of Whitewood, Massachus Eates, to conduct research on witchcraft. She discovers that the town is occupied by the reincarnation of a notorious witch, Elizabeth Selwyn/Lady Newlys (Patricia Jessel), who was burned at the stake in the 17th century. To maintain her immortality, a virgin must be sacrificed to the witch every year - and this year, the student is the chosen victim.
