Su oficio lo lleva a la b\u00fasqueda de la bruja Oona (Elisabeth Bergner), la supuesta l\u00edder de un culto pagano sat\u00e1nico. Al encontrarse con Oona, en compa\u00f1\u00eda de sus seguidoras y seguidores en medio de un ritual, Lord Whitman ordena la ejecuci\u00f3n inmediata de las y los adeptos a la bruja, arrebatando la vida de un buen n\u00famero de los ah\u00ed presentes. Extra\u00f1amente, Oona logra escapar y jura cobrar venganza en contra de Lord Whitman y su estirpe; as\u00ed, utilizando como sicario a Roderick (Patrick Mower), un sirviente cercano a Lord Whitman y su familia, la bruja comienza a arrebatar una a una, las vidas de todos los seres queridos del magistrado.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">El planteamiento argumental de <em>Cry of the Banshee <\/em>no esclarece si las mujeres perseguidas y ejecutadas por brujer\u00eda merec\u00edan comparecer frente a la justicia, ni tampoco deja claro si el personaje encarnado por Vincent Price, pese a todo, era un hombre justo. Por momentos, la cinta dirigida por Gordon Hessler parece referir a las injusticias sufridas por miles de mujeres en el fen\u00f3meno hist\u00f3rico de la Caza de Brujas, aunque por otra parte, tambi\u00e9n presenta la peligrosidad y letalidad de las supuestas brujas.
