Plot Summary:Hundreds of years ago the daughters of the High Priest Yuma were appointed as guardians of the sacred Scarabee Ruby, which hung around the neck of their god. One of the daughters aided her lover to steal the sacred jewel, and her sister, trying to prevent the theft, was mortally wounded and was discovered dying at the feet of the god by her father, who in his grief and rage pronounced a terrible curse upon the sacred jewel, decreeing that into the body of the possessor should enter two different spirits, those of purity and evil, which should always be at war. Peter Sylvester, a rising young doctor, calls for his fiancée, Mona Dorsay, and the young couple start off on a shopping expedition. Noticing a curious jewel in a curiosity shop, Mona takes a great fancy to the trinket, and Peter buys the Scarabee Ruby and presents it to Mona. That night, after retiring to her room, Mona is disturbed by the evil spirit. A terrible change comes over the young girl's face, and catching up a cloak, she goes forth into the night towards another existence, returning at the break of day. She is awakened long after her usual time by her mother, who is astonished that she had slept so long; the evil spirit has fled and Mona is once again her natural self. Quite unconscious of the night's happenings, she apologizes for her late appearance. Some nights later Mona, led by the evil spirit, becomes a member of a notorious gang of thieves, and her beauty proves an excellent snare for wealthy foreigners. Dancing one night in a hall which she frequents, she is seen by Peter, who is astounded by what he thinks a wonderful resemblance. His suspicions are dispelled next morning by Mona's fresh and charming appearance. However, gazing at her photograph later in the evening, Peter's doubts return as he fancies he sees the picture change to that of the dancing girl. That night, owing to Mona's influence Mr. Phillips, a wealthy traveler invites the gang to supper; the police are, however, on their track, and one of the gang is a spy. Peter comes to the same restaurant, and is now certain that this is really Mona, and despite her denials, makes an attempt to rescue her. A serious fight ensues, and in the melee Mona escapes and is driven away in a taxi before Peter can prevent her. Next morning Mona and her mother are surprised that Peter does not pay his usual visit, and send their servant to inquire. Hearing that he has been injured in an accident, the two ladies go to call upon him, and, again bewildered by Mona's apparent innocence, he keeps the doings of the night a secret and explains that his wounds are due to a motor accident. Acting on the spy's information, a plan is formed by the police to arrest the notorious gang, and that night, a raid is made on a flat. Mona, who has joined them as usual, escapes although she has been slightly wounded in the neck, and a journalist, who is among the party, succeeds in getting a flashlight photograph of her. Next morning a full report of the raid appears in the newspapers, accompanied by the photograph of Mona, and both Peter and his father are again convinced that their suspicions are correct. Mona, on waking discovers the wound on her neck, which puzzles her greatly. When shown the newspapers, she is at first amused by the resemblance to herself, but when reading of the fugitive's wound, which appears to tally with her own, she becomes disturbed and vaguely alarmed. Believing this to be a case of somnambulism, Peter and his father decide to watch her, and take up their positions outside her room. When she attempts to leave to go forth on her nocturnal wanderings, she is prevented, and becoming hysterical, faints, and Peter's father, then notices the inscription on her necklace, which reads, \"Unless it shall become dust, the Scarabee Ruby will always divide the body of the wearer in which two different and opposing spirits shall manifest themselves.\" Now the mystery becomes clear, and Peter and his father carefully destroy the jewel, and Mona's mind is set at rest by a report in the newspapers, which announces that the girl whose photograph appeared the day before has been arrested. This has been inserted by Peter, and believing that she has lost her Scarabee Ruby, Mona is made quite happy by the presentation of a prettier pendant by her lover.
