The Kiss of Death

In Padua to study medicine, Giovanni Guasconti meets and falls in love with Beatrice, the beautiful daughter of Dr. Rappaccini, not knowing that she is under the spell of her father who has developed a flower that will kill anyone—except for her—who touches it. Later Giovanni inadvertently touches the flower and, though he doesn't die, becomes seriously ill. When he recovers, he finds that he too is now under the doctor's spell.
