Asleep, he dreams and the dream seems horrible reality. He sees himself and two friends, Gibson and Ferguson, going through a series of strange adventures, commencing in an Oriental temple in India. The native worshipers are kneeling before their idol in adoration. The three men burst in and defame the god. The natives grovel in fear of what might be the result, but the three men, laughing loudly, leave the temple. The High Priest curses them with all the fervor of his enraged being. The three men return to America and forget the incident. But the curse of the High Priest follows them, and from some strange source each receives a miniature of the idol they have insulted. At Watson's home they all meet that evening, and as they stand to give each other a toast there appears in the center of the room the figure of the High Priest. They fear inwardly, but on the surface each displays a certain amount of bravado, fearing to be called a coward. Ferguson and Gibson go home with a strange feeling of impending disaster. But they laugh away these thoughts and go to bed. Strange things happen. In their sleep they see themselves, bound and gagged, carried into the temple to be sacrificed before the idol. The idol kills them by a stroke of lightning. The men awake in the morning and find on their arms a red design which they cannot erase. Watson awakens from a troubled sleep and finds on his dresser the miniature god surrounded by a strange light. He gets up and moves toward it, but it disappears. He turns on the light and finds no one. He puts out the light and the miniature returns. He becomes angry and throws the god out of the window. In the morning he finds the god has returned. So it goes until one of the men dies mysteriously. Watson, fearing for his own life, becomes a nervous wreck. He sees a figure and shoots at it, and then discovers it is his wife. Watson, terrified, turns the gun on himself and levels it at his head. There is a flash, and Watson awakens. It was the fuse blowing out that awakened him.
