L'Orribile segreto del Dr. Hichcock (The Horrible Dr. Hichcock) (or, literally translated, The Horrible Secret of Dr. Hichcock) is a 1962 Italian horror film directed by Riccardo Freda and written by Ernesto Gastaldi , starring Barbara Steele and Robert Flemyng.
The story is set in 1885 and concerns a Dr. Hichcock, a necrophiliac whose horrible secret of the title involves drugging his wife for sexual funeral games.
One day he accidentally administers an overdose and kills her. Several years later he remarries, with the intention of using the blood of his new bride (Steele) to bring his first wife's rotting corpse back to life.
