Summary: Professor Henry Jarrod (Vincent Price) is devoted wax figure sculptor for his museum in 1910s NYC. When his financial partner, Matthew Burke (Roy Roberts), demands more sensational exhibits to increase profits, Jarrod refuses. In retaliation, Burke torches the museum for the insurance money, leaving Jarrod for dead. Miraculously, Jarrod survives (though his hands and legs are rendered useless) and builds a new House of Wax with help from threatening deaf-mute sculptor, Igor (Charles Bronson). The museum's popular "Chamber of Horrors" showcases both famous crimes and more recent ones, like the murderer of Jarrod's former business partner by a cloaked, disfigured killer. Burke's fiancee Cathy Gray (Carolyn Jones), is also attacked. But when Cathy's friend, Sue Allen (Phyllis Kirk), visits the museum, she makes a discovery that leads to the horrifying truth behind the House of Wax: it is full of murdered people coated in wax. I'm curious about this film, I want to watch this. I think this is also as nice as the House of Wax 2005 staring Paris Hilton and others.
