This Thomas H. Ince production contained enough plot, incidents and characters for three pictures. William Desmond stars as Prince Carl, ruler of a war-ravaged European kingdom. On the orders of pretender-to-the-throne Michael (Wyndham Standing), Carl is lured into a dank dungeon by Michael's vampish sister, Countess Olga (Bessie Barriscale). Sentenced to be executed on a trumped-up charge, Carl is rescued by Olga, who has fallen in love with him. In retaliation, Michael begins plotting Olga's demise, but she in turn is saved by the timely arrival of Carl, who dispatches the villain with his trusty saber. And the story still has at least three more reels to go! ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
