Storyline:
In 1939, Stanton “Stan” Carlisle sets fire to his Midwestern home after concealing a body in a hole beneath the floor. He then joins a traveling carnival as a carny. When the carnival’s geek falls ill, the owner, Clem, enlists Stan to help dispose of the man. Clem explains that he targets alcoholics or drug addicts, often individuals with troubled pasts, luring them with promises of temporary work and drugging them with opium-laced alcohol. This dependency allows him to manipulate and abuse them until they descend into madness, creating a geek for the carnival. Clem also shows Stan where he stores his moonshine, used to control the carnies, and warns him not to confuse it with the nearby wood alcohol.
Stan begins working with “Madame Zeena,” a clairvoyant act, and her alcoholic husband, Pete. Zeena and Pete use cold reading and a coded language system to create the illusion of extraordinary mental powers, which Pete starts teaching Stan. Both Zeena and Pete caution Stan against using these techniques to deceive patrons about contacting the dead, as it can lead to harm. Meanwhile, Stan becomes romantically interested in another performer, Molly, and proposes an idea for a two-person act outside the carnival.
One night, Stan inadvertently gives Pete the wrong bottle, and the old man dies from drinking wood alcohol. In the aftermath, Stan declares his love for Molly and reiterates his plan to leave the carnival. Molly agrees, and they depart together.
Two years later, Stan has reinvented himself as “The Great Stanton,” performing psychic acts for Buffalo’s wealthy elite with Molly as his assistant, using the techniques he learned from Zeena and Pete. During one of their shows, psychologist Dr. Lilith Ritter attempts to expose their act, but Stan outsmarts her, preserving their reputation while embarrassing her publicly. Later, Judge Kimball, who hired Ritter to test Stan, approaches him convinced of his abilities. He offers Stan a substantial sum to help him and his wife communicate with their deceased son. Despite Molly’s objections, Stan agrees.
