The Queen of Spades

Her obsession with gambling led her to discover a sinister pact that destroyed her life.

An elderly countess strikes a bargain with the devil and exchanges her soul for the ability to always win at cards. An army officer, who is also a fanatic about cards, murders her for the secret, then finds himself haunted by the woman's spirit.
