Cult flick of dreamy gothic horror with Cheryl Smith

In early 30’s America, a girl (Smith) who lives with a minister is summoned by letter to the town of Ashtaroth to visit her dying father, a gangster. There she encounters horrific beings in the woods and the curiously calm and collected Lemora (Lesley Taplin), who welcomes her into her Victorian mansion. Horror ensues.
