Within eighteen tense minutes Charlie Chan survives four lethal attacks—a poison dart, a speeding bullet and a gleaming dagger—each narrowly avoided. The peril unfolds in a wax museum run by a mad doctor who creates wax figures of infamous killers such as Jack the Ripper and Bluebeard while also performing grotesque plastic surgery. The doctor's twisted laboratory becomes the hideout of an arch‑fiend.
