Alraune (German: Unnatural) is a 1958 science fiction film written by Hanns Heinz Ewers and Kurt Heuser and directed by Arthur Maria Rabenalt about a scientist who creates an artificial woman. Because the woman does not have a soul or sense of mortality, she brings bad luck to all those around her.

In this version of the Ewers' novel a mad scientist "creates" a beautiful but demonic woman, the result of a forced sexual union between a woman and a mandrake root, a plant said to have magical powers due to its uncanny resemblance to the human body. Written by Doug Sederberg
