Synopsis

Based on the novel by one of France’s most famous 19th century writers, Gaston Leroux (Phantom of The Opera). The Perfume of the Lady in Black follows the French box office smash Mystery of the Yellow Room, and is a delightful mixture of mystery, burlesque, and comedy set in a mad, mad world. Newly married, Mathilde and Robert are honeymooning at a resort owned by their friends Edith and Arthur, the Chateau d’Hercule. But an unpleasant shock is in store for them. The wicked Larsan Ballmeyer has returned and once more he is terrorizing the beautiful Mathilde. Rouletabille and his side-kick Sainclair lead the brave investigation into Larsan and his evil schemes.
