An archaeologist uncovers an ancient mummy, which is actually an alien invader that locked itself in the pyramid. It bursts out, but it turns out that the mummy forgot that it sealed itself in to protect himself from Earth's atmosphere, which kills it.; An artist finds an alien pencil that will make whatever he draws real, but his selfish use of it makes the aliens take it back.; A rich weakling pays a witch to give him muscles of iron, but her spell makes him sink right through the earth's surface.; A man looking through an abandoned house find notes in an alien language. They tell of an alien shapeshifter disguised as a human to undermine Earth before an invasion, and are accompanied by a photograph of the alien's human form, Soviet Premier Nikita Kruschev.
