A young orphan is left in the care of his shady aunt and uncle. When the boy is convinced he sees a "bogeyman" in the coal bin in the basement, the couple convince the boy that it's real so he will go insane with fright and have to be institutionalized, thus allowing them to cash in on his inheritance with him being incapacitated. After the deed is done, the couple plan on spending the money. Problem is, there really was a monster in the coal bin who then proceeds to slaughter them.
