Plot Overview
A deranged author who's a patient at a sanitarium kills the facility's head doctor and assumes his identity, putting in place what he refers to as 'permissive therapy' and also installing other patients as replacements for the staff, whom he has locked away. He doesn't count on a visit from the real head doctor's niece, who soon figures out what happened to her uncle.
