Russia of the first half of the XIX century. The young nobleman, a naive provincial, arrives in Moscow, where, rotating among the local aristocracy, he meets the German von Neugof, who is known as the “notorious defender of all alchemists, astrologers, spiritualists, and even the famous deceiver of the Italian Cagliostro ". Von Neugof admits that he knows how to call spirits, and even tells his young friend how to do it ... But the experiment, who promised to become a funny adventure, ends with nothing. The spirit is not, but the naive young man suddenly has another acquaintance - Baron Broken, who looks so strange that it seems that this baron has hidden horns under his hat, and the dandy boots are worn on goat hooves ...
