The story

The film opens with a narrator stating that the film is a detective story where the viewer is the detective and tells the audience to watch for the "werewolf break". Near the climax, the "werewolf break", which is a 30-second pause where the audience is asked to guess the werewolf's identity based on clues from the film, briefly interrupts the film. Millionaire Tom Newcliffe invites a group of people, along with his wife Caroline, to spend some time in his rural English mansion, where he reveals that one of them is a werewolf and therefore must be killed.
