In this tongue-in-cheek movie inspired by Poe's poem, Dr. Craven is the son of a great sorcerer (now dead) who was once himself quite skilled at that profession, but has since abandoned it. One evening, a cowardly fool of a magician named Bedlo comes to Craven for help - the evil Scarabus has turned him into a raven and he needs someone to change him back. He also tells the reluctant wizard that Craven's long-lost wife Lenore, whom he loved greatly and thought dead, is living with the despised Scarabus. 在一个夜晚，魔法师克诺夫遇见了被斯卡夫得变成了乌鸦的贝多得，经过贝得多的叙述，克诺夫知道斯卡夫得控制了亡妻丽诺尔的灵魂。于是，克诺夫和贝多得一行人就踏上了向斯卡夫得复仇的道路...让人意想不到的是，贝多得和丽诺尔都是斯卡夫得的党羽，最后，克诺夫踏上了自救与复仇的道路...
