* CrazyPrepared: Guy Carrell is terrified of being buried alive and takes lots of steps to counter this. He wants to be entombed above ground and builds a special coffin that will open if there is any movement from inside. He installs a bell to ring for help and a rope ladder and skylight to escape from the mausoleum. His mausoleum also contains dynamite to blow open the door in case the bell and ladder fail and (should all of that fail) poison to commit suicide with. His wife urges him to destroy the mausoleum, saying it fuels his morbid obsession with being buried alive and harming his mental health.

Set in the early Victorian era, British aristocrat Guy Carrell (Milland) has an obsessive fear of being buried alive so consuming that it prevents him from marrying his fiancée Emily Gault (Court). The reason behind it is because he, like his father, suffers from a cataleptic illness that mimics the appearance of being dead. As time goes on, strange and disturbing occurrences happen that threaten to send Guy into the very state he fears, dreading the idea of suffering the same fate as his late father.
