The landlord and his wife  speculate about what he’s up to-with all sorts of chemicals and beakers in his room-and his odd behavior. After a while, when the innkeeper demands  rent money that the stranger has not been paying-the mysterious man assaults him and tosses him down the stairs!! The townsmen who frequent the bar call in the police- but a shock is in store for them, when the man  reveals that beneath his bandages and clothing- he is invisible! He escapes, causing mayhem as he goes, and heads for the home of a fellow scientist, Dr. Kemp. who works with the father of his fiancée.

He must watch Kemp carefully, since his "old friend" is just the type to double-cross him ! Before long, the invisible madman has all of England cowering in fear- and even his beloved fiancee  cannot calm his deranged mind!
