Film Notes
An Egyptian prince has lost his wife. Inconsolable, he asks a priest to show him his beloved dead wife. The priest takes the woman’s skeleton from the tomb and wraps it in cloth, and it becomes a ghost. The ghost becomes a beautiful living woman, but when the astonished prince approaches her, the priest turns her back into a skeleton.
