Daughters of Darkness is a 1971 erotic horror film co-written and directed by Harry Kümel and starring Delphine Seyrig, John Karlen, Andrea Rau, and Danielle Ouimet. Set in a nearly deserted seaside hotel in Belgium, the film follows a newlywed couple who encounter a mysterious Hungarian countess, Elizabeth Báthory, and her enigmatic companion.

Kümel infuses the film with visual references to Marlene Dietrich and Louise Brooks, while exploring themes of gender, power, and identity. The narrative draws inspiration from historical accounts of Erzsébet Báthory, but recasts her as a seductive, controlling figure in a postwar, decadent setting.

The Terror is a 1963 American independent horror film produced and directed by Roger Corman. The film stars Boris Karloff and Jack Nicholson, the latter of whom portrays a French officer who is seduced by a woman who is also a shapeshifting devil. The film is sometimes linked to Corman's Poe cycle, a series of movies based on the works of Edgar Allan Poe; however, The Terror is not based on any text written by Poe but relies on the Poe theme of a deceased wife that continues to haunt the husband such as in "Ligeia" and "Morella" which were part of the Cycle. The movie has become infamous because of the circumstances including its chaotic production and disjointed narrative, including that all of Boris Karloff's scenes were shot in two days, the long time it took to complete, the number of people who worked on it that became famous, and the part the film played in the financing and production of Targets (1968), directed by Peter Bogdanovich and starring Karloff

At night, he locks himself inside his house.
