Teena Halliday, payng an extended visit to Rentlow Retreat, doesn't want to pose for Jeremy Rentlow, a noted sculptor. There are malicious rumors that he is a vampire, which make Teena feel uneasy, but Jeremy persists, and Teena finally gives in. Soon after the sittings get under way, Teena begins to feel weak and tire, but Jeremy refuses to let her miss a session. Suddenly Jeremy tells his family of their engagement. Teen does not have him but she does not love him but she does not have the strength to protest. It is as if she has become his prisoner, with no will of her own. Then Teena notices strange marks on her neck. She dares not ask--are they the marks of a vampire? Is Jeremy's kiss the kiss of death?
