A horror writer has stumbled upon a terrible secret, that cats are supernatural creatures who really call the shots. In a desperate attempt to get others to believe him, he spews three tales of feline horror.

Wilbur Gray (Peter Cushing) visits Frank Richards (Ray Milland) so he can get his book published. This book Gray has written are about cats. Cats watching everyone and controlling everything. He swears the three stories in the book are all true. The first involves the murder of a cat-loving old woman (Joan Greenwood), the second is a tale of black magic between two girls (Katrina Holden, Chloe Franks), and the third is a tale of murderous revenge...by a cat.
