The stories

“The Thing from Beyond”

The deformed Hugo gets revenge on all those he feels has wronged him.

“Almost Human”

A scientist creates a synthetic robot human in his castle laboratory that is incredibly lifelike. The robot gains sentience and, after killing the scientist, begins to build an army of human-like robots in hopes of overthrowing humanity.

“The Paper Ghost”

A man kills his business partner (who he runs a paper mill with) by throwing him into a vat of acid. The acid is later mixed into solid pulp that's used to produce hundreds of paper products. The victim, working through these products (by animating paper cups, newspapers etc.) gets revenge on his murderer.

“Borrowed Blood”

A doctor gives a gypsy child a blood transfusion in an attempt to save his life but he dies. The gypsies blame his blood and seek retribution.
