begin to take a strong interest in Wesley and consider him the prime suspect in both murders.

Wesley's mother is naturally very concerned and sends for Wesley's doctor who cared for Wes for thirteen years while Wes was in an institution recovering from a mental breakdown after accidentally killing his younger brother. Wesley is released on bond and finds himself in the company of a pretty young reporter, Angelle.

While on a date that Angelle has made with Wes to get a story at a local night club, Wes is recognized by a drunk from his picture in the paper. After being intimidated by the drunk, Wesley beats him unmercifully.

Once again, Wes is in the local police station. His doctor, Bennett Moss, has arrived in town and informs
the police of Wes' possible mental condition and Wes is released into the custody of Doctor Moss.

Later that evening at the Stuart home where Dr. Moss is a house guest, Wes goes into a sudden rage when he finds out that his mother actually sent for Dr. Moss. He storms out of the room and is apparently turning in for the night. After a short discussion with Wesley's mother about his behavior during the last few months, Dr. Moss is shown to his room and retires.

Wesley has a sensual dream about Angelle and wakes up in a cold sweat. Dr. Moss hears him as he leaves his room. As Moss is trying to locate Wes in the darkened house, he hears an odd sound from behind a closed door. Thinking that Wes is in a certain room, Dr. Moss slowly approaches the closed door. He tries to open the door, and finding it locked, calls to Wes to unlock it. As the door opens, a meat cleaver slices Dr. Moss' left hand off. As he screams from shock and pain, the cleaver plunges into his head.

Wesley shows up at Angelle's apartment. He is in a very agitated state. He trys to relax by getting intimate with Angelle but she resists his rather insistent approach. A bulletin of another brutal murder comes over her radio and Wesley is firm in his denial of any guilt. Since a bulletin has been issued for his arrest, Angelle volunteers to get Dr. Moss, who can account for Wesley's whereabouts. Wesley has another violent headache attack and decides to follow Angelle back to his house. He is apprehended by the police outside 0f Angelle's apartment. Wes tells the police that Angelic has gone to his house, but the police refuse to believe his story and proceed to take him to jail.

Wes finally convinces them to go to his home. It is here that the murderer meets with fate. But the murderer is apt to take much of the audience by surprise.
