Overview: Successful writer and scholar Jonathan Merrick falls under the spell of the irresistible, bewitchingly beautiful Ligeia. She is battling a fatal illness and will stop at nothing to defeat death, her one true enemy. She steals other people's souls, and in her quest for immortality, she tricks Jonathan into supporting her work, tearing him away from his fiancée Rowena and drawing him into her dark, mysterious world. They settle into an old manor by the Black Sea, where Ligeia's ever-present influence slowly drives Jonathan to madness.
