Upon attaining adulthood, Alraune sets about to seduce and destroy every male who crosses her path. Ultimately, Professor Brinken is hoist on his own petard when he falls hopelessly in love with Alraune himself.

Tschudi reported her for having put needles in the bread and milk of one of his daughters, apparently through supernatural means.
