In a small village, Francis and his friend Alan visit a carnival where they meet Dr. Caligari and the somnambulist Cesare, who can supposedly divine the future.  His curiosity piqued by the large number of murders around town, Alan asks Cesare how long he has to live.  Cesare tells him he will die at dawn.  When this prophecy comes true, Francis and his girlfriend Jane start investigating Dr. Caligari and Cesare.  During their research, they learn “Caligari” is the director of an insane asylum, obsessed with the story of a medieval Dr. Caligari, who used a somnambulist to murder people as a traveling act, however not everything is as it seems.
