WEBVTT 00:00:18.279 --> 00:00:26.000 Come in. Welcome. I am E .G. Marshall. Welcome 00:00:26.000 --> 00:00:29.239 to the world of your own terrifying imagination. 00:00:30.539 --> 00:00:33.479 Since the beginning of time, people have argued 00:00:33.479 --> 00:00:37.200 about the existence of ghosts. They've been called 00:00:37.200 --> 00:00:42.060 variously wraiths, specters, phantoms, apparitions, 00:00:42.619 --> 00:00:46.439 shadows or shades. But everyone agrees that if 00:00:46.439 --> 00:00:49.740 there are such things as ghosts, they are the 00:00:49.740 --> 00:00:53.299 souls of dead persons, haunting living persons. 00:00:53.979 --> 00:00:58.500 And that's what our story is about. Ghosts. No 00:00:58.500 --> 00:01:00.899 one, Mr. Garth, whether professional ghost hunters 00:01:00.899 --> 00:01:04.200 or ordinary people, have ever been able to spend 00:01:04.200 --> 00:01:06.340 an entire night in that house. Well, how many 00:01:06.340 --> 00:01:08.420 have tried, Mr. Flanders? Well, I know of at 00:01:08.420 --> 00:01:10.900 least a dozen. And that's within the past two 00:01:10.900 --> 00:01:13.700 years. Did you get any reports from the professionals? 00:01:13.959 --> 00:01:17.280 Oh, sketchy ones. But they all say the same thing. 00:01:17.939 --> 00:01:20.159 That whatever or whoever it is that haunts that 00:01:20.159 --> 00:01:23.480 house, the manifestations are the most powerful 00:01:23.480 --> 00:01:28.019 and evil in their experience. They all mention... 00:01:27.609 --> 00:01:39.049 Nameless Horrors. Our mystery drama, A Ghostly 00:01:39.049 --> 00:01:42.030 Game of Death, was written especially for the 00:01:42.030 --> 00:01:46.469 Mystery Theatre by Murray Burnett and stars William 00:01:46.469 --> 00:02:02.379 Prince. Nameless horrors, a nice phrase. But 00:02:02.379 --> 00:02:05.700 as soon as you put a name and identity to horrors, 00:02:06.140 --> 00:02:09.719 somehow they prove bearable. In the last century, 00:02:09.800 --> 00:02:12.840 people have shown that they can and do bear up 00:02:12.840 --> 00:02:16.580 under mass genocide and atomic bombings. But 00:02:16.580 --> 00:02:20.039 the horror that is nameless, that is the most 00:02:20.039 --> 00:02:23.900 fearful of all. And our spine -tingler will try 00:02:23.900 --> 00:02:28.969 to put a name to one kind of horror. You are 00:02:28.969 --> 00:02:32.729 not real. There are no such things as ghosts. 00:02:33.490 --> 00:02:39.810 I'm just imagining things. But I see you. I see 00:02:39.810 --> 00:02:45.789 you. Now, don't, don't hurt me. Whatever you 00:02:45.789 --> 00:02:50.629 are, please, stay away from me. You want me to 00:02:50.629 --> 00:02:54.289 leave the house? I will, I will, if that's what 00:02:54.289 --> 00:02:58.819 you want. Just please let me by. I'll go right 00:02:58.819 --> 00:03:02.379 down the stairs, walk out of the house, and never 00:03:02.379 --> 00:03:07.819 come back. Is that what you want? Please! No! 00:03:08.460 --> 00:03:25.099 Don't touch me! Let me out! Suicide. That's what 00:03:25.099 --> 00:03:28.280 all the papers say, Mr. Garth. But we know better. 00:03:29.300 --> 00:03:32.879 It's ghosts. That house is haunted. Mr. Flanders, 00:03:33.360 --> 00:03:36.860 my field of study is the supernatural. But I 00:03:36.860 --> 00:03:39.039 can't even begin to tell you whether I can help 00:03:39.039 --> 00:03:41.659 or not until you get control of yourself. I'm 00:03:41.659 --> 00:03:43.979 sorry, but this whole thing is just about putting 00:03:43.979 --> 00:03:46.800 our firm out of business. The house, Mr. Flanders. 00:03:47.159 --> 00:03:49.639 Do you have anything on the history of the house? 00:03:49.939 --> 00:03:54.000 Yes. It was built in the early 1800s by a sea 00:03:54.000 --> 00:03:57.300 captain named Ephraim Hatch. For himself and 00:03:57.300 --> 00:04:01.680 his bride young lady named Lucy Endicott And 00:04:01.680 --> 00:04:04.219 they lived in it for some four years until the 00:04:04.219 --> 00:04:07.539 tragedy you have the details Well Captain Hatch 00:04:07.539 --> 00:04:09.860 was supposedly a hellraiser in his youth, but 00:04:09.860 --> 00:04:13.500 also a great seafaring man He was in whaling 00:04:13.500 --> 00:04:17.660 and if the room is a true slave trading At any 00:04:17.660 --> 00:04:20.519 rate he amassed a fortune. He fell in love with 00:04:20.519 --> 00:04:22.939 this center card girl who was the town beauty 00:04:23.240 --> 00:04:26.360 married her, settled down and built this house. 00:04:26.740 --> 00:04:30.000 The tragedy. Well, the story goes, as nearly 00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:32.639 as we can piece it together, that the captain 00:04:32.639 --> 00:04:34.660 returned from one of his voyages earlier than 00:04:34.660 --> 00:04:37.939 expected and found his bride entertaining a lover. 00:04:38.800 --> 00:04:42.959 He killed them both. Horribly. And ever since, 00:04:43.079 --> 00:04:47.540 the house has been haunted and unlivable. We're 00:04:47.540 --> 00:04:51.120 building a condominium. This house is a key location. 00:04:51.339 --> 00:04:54.199 right in the middle of the property we own. We 00:04:54.199 --> 00:04:57.060 can't even get records to tear it down. No one 00:04:57.060 --> 00:04:58.980 will go near the place. Well, you keep telling 00:04:58.980 --> 00:05:02.420 me that no one has lived in the house. What about 00:05:02.420 --> 00:05:04.899 this girl who just died there? Oh, that was a 00:05:04.899 --> 00:05:08.379 stupid idea of my partner's. Her name was Roberta 00:05:08.379 --> 00:05:12.060 Ginley, a television reporter. She wanted to 00:05:12.060 --> 00:05:14.360 make a name for herself, and my partner sold 00:05:14.360 --> 00:05:16.680 me on the idea that if she spent a night in the 00:05:16.680 --> 00:05:19.000 house and then went on television and told people 00:05:19.000 --> 00:05:23.750 about it... Our problems would be solved. And 00:05:23.750 --> 00:05:28.189 now we're in a worse mess than before. That's 00:05:28.189 --> 00:05:40.209 why we came to you. Well, there you are, gentlemen. 00:05:40.829 --> 00:05:43.189 The haunted house. Well, is it always this windy, 00:05:43.250 --> 00:05:46.670 Mr. Flanders? No, Mr. Kelly. Only when the wind 00:05:46.670 --> 00:05:48.829 blows from the east off the ocean. Well, for 00:05:48.829 --> 00:05:51.250 a haunted house, it looks substantial enough. 00:05:51.550 --> 00:05:53.350 Well, shall we go up to the house, Mr. Flanders? 00:05:53.990 --> 00:05:58.529 Um, why don't you two go? I'll wait for you here. 00:05:59.269 --> 00:06:01.850 You'll be quite safe, Mr. Flanders. It's broad 00:06:01.850 --> 00:06:04.720 daylight. Jim Kelly here has been with me in 00:06:04.720 --> 00:06:07.699 more haunted places and dealt with more ghosts 00:06:07.699 --> 00:06:10.839 than any man except myself And don't forget Byron 00:06:10.839 --> 00:06:13.759 Byron is my dog. Mr. Flanders and like me. He 00:06:13.759 --> 00:06:18.459 doesn't believe in ghosts. Do you buy? Oh I'm 00:06:18.459 --> 00:06:21.519 not scared gentlemen. It's just that I somebody 00:06:21.519 --> 00:06:25.560 times I Well, I don't want to influence so she's 00:06:25.560 --> 00:06:30.720 uh Let's go Byron Bring all our kitchen. Well, 00:06:30.720 --> 00:06:32.579 it's back at the motel. We won't need it until 00:06:32.579 --> 00:06:38.259 tonight Wow, they certainly built solid houses 00:06:38.259 --> 00:06:43.939 in the old days look at this door Easy Byron 00:06:43.939 --> 00:06:47.420 boy, everything's okay. You got the keys right 00:06:47.420 --> 00:06:55.620 here Come on now Byron come on we're on our way 00:06:55.620 --> 00:07:01.740 to meet the ghost Keep Byron quiet. Sit. Sit, 00:07:01.759 --> 00:07:05.319 Byron. Come on, sit. I don't think we should 00:07:05.319 --> 00:07:07.540 bother with the downstairs. Let's go up and see 00:07:07.540 --> 00:07:09.240 where we're gonna sleep tonight. All right, I'm 00:07:09.240 --> 00:07:14.379 with you. Come along, Byron. Oh, this looks like 00:07:14.379 --> 00:07:17.480 the master's bedroom. I'll sleep here. And I'll 00:07:17.480 --> 00:07:20.279 sleep in this little alcove here, right off your 00:07:20.279 --> 00:07:24.519 room. Byron, what is the matter with you? I wouldn't 00:07:24.519 --> 00:07:27.800 try to take him into that alcove, Tim. Stay in 00:07:27.800 --> 00:07:30.120 this room with me tonight. All right. All right. 00:07:30.319 --> 00:07:32.459 Hey, there's a door here leading outside to what 00:07:32.459 --> 00:07:34.720 you call the widow's walk. Want to come out and 00:07:34.720 --> 00:07:37.639 look around? I'll be right with you. Just checking 00:07:37.639 --> 00:07:42.759 the fireplace. Gonna need logs. Okay. Where's 00:07:42.759 --> 00:07:47.680 the door? Ah, it's right here. It hasn't been 00:07:47.680 --> 00:07:54.399 open in a long time. What a view. Look at that 00:07:54.399 --> 00:07:59.899 ocean. to see her husband's ship come in, I'd 00:07:59.899 --> 00:08:03.160 be blown away. And what Flanders tells, the captain's 00:08:03.160 --> 00:08:05.220 wife wasn't too anxious for her husband to return. 00:08:05.420 --> 00:08:08.420 That's right. She was too busy entertaining her 00:08:08.420 --> 00:08:12.839 lover. Now you go over the rail. Thanks, Mr. 00:08:12.959 --> 00:08:15.899 Garth. If you hadn't caught me, I would have 00:08:15.899 --> 00:08:19.560 gone over. What happened? Oh, nothing. Nothing. 00:08:19.939 --> 00:08:24.060 I don't know. I just lost my balance. Come on, 00:08:24.220 --> 00:08:27.459 Jim. We know each other better than that. What 00:08:27.459 --> 00:08:32.779 happened? I really don't know Alex I swear I 00:08:32.779 --> 00:08:43.779 thought someone pushed me right thing and I'll 00:08:43.779 --> 00:08:45.259 understand if you don't want to go through with 00:08:45.259 --> 00:08:48.200 this I'll pay all your expenses to date you're 00:08:48.200 --> 00:08:51.480 concerned about my safety yes a real estate deal 00:08:51.480 --> 00:08:54.080 is important but not that important mr. Flanders 00:08:54.080 --> 00:08:57.299 you'll have nothing on your conscience Tim and 00:08:57.299 --> 00:09:00.659 I will spend tonight in the house and by tomorrow 00:09:00.659 --> 00:09:04.200 the ghost should be at rest and you think there 00:09:04.200 --> 00:09:07.779 is a ghost well of course I just don't believe 00:09:07.779 --> 00:09:11.450 in its malevolence Have you taken care of the 00:09:11.450 --> 00:09:14.169 wooden logs for the fireplaces? The men wouldn't 00:09:14.169 --> 00:09:16.809 go into the house, but you'll find plenty of 00:09:16.809 --> 00:09:19.830 firewood outside the door. Fine. Then I'll be 00:09:19.830 --> 00:09:30.870 on my way. I've never seen Byron act like this. 00:09:30.639 --> 00:09:33.480 Hmm, something to think about. Well, I've been 00:09:33.480 --> 00:09:35.940 with you on about 50 of these haunted house deals. 00:09:36.080 --> 00:09:37.600 You think there's something different about this 00:09:37.600 --> 00:09:40.919 one? Well, I don't know, but I'm going to find 00:09:40.919 --> 00:09:46.519 out. Well, I've heard that sort of moan before. 00:09:46.799 --> 00:09:48.919 According to you, Alex, it's a ghost in pain. 00:09:49.039 --> 00:09:54.580 It is. Sounds like the evening's entertainment 00:09:54.580 --> 00:09:58.340 is about to start. Tim? Yes, Alex. We've worked 00:09:58.340 --> 00:10:01.259 together for a long time, and we get along so 00:10:01.259 --> 00:10:04.399 well because I respect your disbelief in the 00:10:04.399 --> 00:10:06.500 supernatural. Yeah, which has come in handy when 00:10:06.500 --> 00:10:08.960 I uncovered a few tape recorders and other little 00:10:08.960 --> 00:10:11.120 fake devices. Right, right. But for your own 00:10:11.120 --> 00:10:14.240 sake, Jim, there's something about this house 00:10:14.240 --> 00:10:16.940 that seems different. Now, please, be careful. 00:10:17.100 --> 00:10:20.039 Huh? You trying to scare me? I don't think that's 00:10:20.039 --> 00:10:23.179 possible. Right, right. Now, how about some wood 00:10:23.179 --> 00:10:29.610 for my fire? if you're trying to scare us it's 00:10:29.610 --> 00:10:33.529 not gonna work you know in all the years we've 00:10:33.529 --> 00:10:36.429 been working together Alex I've yet to see a 00:10:36.429 --> 00:10:39.309 ghost but you've heard them oh so you tell me 00:10:39.309 --> 00:10:42.570 you talk with them I just hear noises and sometimes 00:10:42.570 --> 00:10:46.629 they're man -made and sometimes not would you 00:10:46.629 --> 00:10:53.690 strike a match please that's better Get some 00:10:53.690 --> 00:10:56.350 of the chill off the room. Fireplaces always 00:10:56.350 --> 00:10:59.169 seem to make a room more cheerful. The electricity 00:10:59.169 --> 00:11:02.129 must have been installed around, oh, I guess 00:11:02.129 --> 00:11:03.909 the turn of the century, huh? Well, I've seen 00:11:03.909 --> 00:11:07.029 brighter lights. But at least we have lights. 00:11:07.129 --> 00:11:09.409 And candles. Oh, did I share mine with you? No, 00:11:09.409 --> 00:11:11.429 I have a supply bag in my room. Oh, all right. 00:11:12.610 --> 00:11:14.990 All right, here we go again.

He's covered with perspiration. 00:12:40.779 --> 00:12:42.480 Well, I don't want to let him out now. He'll 00:12:42.480 --> 00:12:44.500 just get lost.

Well, whoever's at the controls is pretty 00:14:07.039 --> 00:14:10.419 good. Nice cold gust of wind just blew out the 00:14:10.419 --> 00:14:12.440 match I was using to light the candle. Well, 00:14:12.440 --> 00:14:14.519 I've got a couple of candles lit. You want one? 00:14:14.559 --> 00:14:19.600 Oh, no, thanks. I'm not scared of the dark. Ah! 00:14:20.419 --> 00:14:22.440 That pounding, that's a new one, isn't it, Alex? 00:14:22.519 --> 00:14:25.389 It's new to me. It isn't spirit rapping sounds 00:14:25.389 --> 00:14:28.149 like someone wants in want to go down and open 00:14:28.149 --> 00:14:32.830 the door. Oh, no chance Hey Alex your side of 00:14:32.830 --> 00:14:36.629 the room Rocking like a boat. I'm steady as a 00:14:36.629 --> 00:14:45.110 rock Was that Byron yes, what happened I'm not 00:14:45.110 --> 00:14:55.860 sure He's he's dead Tim what His neck seems to 00:14:55.860 --> 00:15:02.679 have been broken Tim did you hear me? I said 00:15:02.679 --> 00:15:26.200 Byron is dead Tim are you all right? Something 00:15:26.200 --> 00:15:29.799 from which he will run, driven by the secret 00:15:29.799 --> 00:15:34.460 whips of his own fears. But I suspect that Alex 00:15:34.460 --> 00:15:36.980 Garth could not tell you what it was that Tim 00:15:36.980 --> 00:15:40.120 Kelly ran from that night in the house at Face 00:15:40.120 --> 00:15:43.799 the Sea. We'll be back shortly with Act Two. 00:15:55.720 --> 00:16:00.539 Alex Garth, authority on the supernatural, has 00:16:00.539 --> 00:16:04.039 undertaken to spend a night in a house so demon 00:16:04.039 --> 00:16:07.360 -ridden that workmen have even refused to tear 00:16:07.360 --> 00:16:11.340 it down. Deserted by his friend and ally, Tim 00:16:11.340 --> 00:16:14.759 Kelly, who fled in terror from unknown fears, 00:16:15.700 --> 00:16:18.299 Garth knew that he had to face the rest of the 00:16:18.299 --> 00:16:22.340 night alone as the heavy outer door boomed closed 00:16:22.340 --> 00:16:33.559 behind Tim Kelly. Show yourself now. I promise 00:16:33.559 --> 00:16:38.480 not to run away like my friend. You'll never 00:16:38.480 --> 00:16:41.980 find peace unless you let me help you. There 00:16:41.980 --> 00:16:48.779 can be no rest for you except through me. Do 00:16:48.779 --> 00:16:51.860 you think you're being punished for some sin 00:16:51.860 --> 00:16:56.759 you committed when you were alive? That isn't 00:16:56.759 --> 00:17:04.490 you. Is it, Lucy? Please, let me help you. I 00:17:04.490 --> 00:17:06.970 will not let you in and I will not leave this 00:17:06.970 --> 00:17:11.529 house. Rocking the room doesn't frighten me. 00:17:11.890 --> 00:17:18.509 I'm not afraid. Mr. Coggins! We've split it up, 00:17:18.829 --> 00:17:24.450 Gallard. Keep her steady or I'll kill you! That 00:17:24.450 --> 00:17:28.069 letter I received in Trinidad tells me that my 00:17:28.069 --> 00:17:39.740 Lucy, my wife, is in... So, Mr. Coggins, we're 00:17:39.740 --> 00:17:44.240 gonna drive home, and to hell with the storm! 00:17:48.279 --> 00:17:52.680 Nightmares. We've all experienced them. But I 00:17:52.680 --> 00:17:55.180 venture to say that none of us has experienced 00:17:55.180 --> 00:17:58.460 the horrible sights, shapes, and sounds that 00:17:58.460 --> 00:18:01.980 Alex Garth saw and heard in that dark room of 00:18:01.980 --> 00:18:05.509 the haunted house for the next hour. And... When 00:18:05.509 --> 00:18:09.069 he still held hard to his sanity and what remained 00:18:09.069 --> 00:18:13.569 of his courage, the apparitions changed in character. 00:18:14.609 --> 00:18:17.650 Garth no longer knew what was real and what was 00:18:17.650 --> 00:18:21.349 fantasy. He later told me that he may even have 00:18:21.349 --> 00:18:24.890 fallen asleep, hard as that may be to believe. 00:18:25.430 --> 00:18:34.170 Alex? Alex Garth? Lucy? I am Lucy. Am I not? 00:18:34.329 --> 00:18:41.109 Fair, Alex Garth? Yes. Even beautiful? Very beautiful. 00:18:42.250 --> 00:18:46.910 Would you not like to touch me, Alex? Even if 00:18:46.910 --> 00:18:51.170 I wanted to, I could not. You think I am cold 00:18:51.170 --> 00:18:56.710 and repulsive. That is what you think. John, 00:18:57.589 --> 00:19:02.509 tell Alex how nice I am to touch. You are very 00:19:02.509 --> 00:19:05.849 nice to the touch, Lucy. Was John your lover? 00:19:06.470 --> 00:19:09.910 You do nothing but ask questions, Alex Garth. 00:19:10.009 --> 00:19:14.089 What should I do, Lucy? Make me feel once more 00:19:14.089 --> 00:19:19.690 the touch of a man. A man you love and... Lucy, 00:19:20.710 --> 00:19:25.029 you're in torment. I can only give you peace. 00:19:25.509 --> 00:19:30.309 Torment? Why should I be unhappy? I live here 00:19:30.309 --> 00:19:36.960 in my house and... Of course, we were naughty, 00:19:37.240 --> 00:19:42.819 John and I. We tried to frighten you. But that 00:19:42.819 --> 00:19:46.019 was only because I don't like strangers in my 00:19:46.019 --> 00:19:51.000 home. Apologize to Alex, John. This is a childish 00:19:51.000 --> 00:19:54.400 game you're playing, Lucy. But I adore games. 00:19:54.859 --> 00:19:59.680 I love games. Come dance a minuet with me, Alex. 00:20:00.859 --> 00:20:07.170 Listen. Isn't the music lovely, Alex? I don't 00:20:07.170 --> 00:20:11.569 dance the minuet, Lucy. John, you dance with 00:20:11.569 --> 00:20:16.769 me. This was how John and I first met. Doesn't 00:20:16.769 --> 00:20:19.490 he dance beautifully, Alex? Very beautifully. 00:20:20.069 --> 00:20:23.529 Remember, John? Remember how you looked at me 00:20:23.529 --> 00:20:26.650 that night? Yes, and that old witch Hannah saw 00:20:26.650 --> 00:20:29.630 it and wrote the letter to your husband. Oh, 00:20:29.849 --> 00:20:35.089 nothing, John. It was much later. Look at me 00:20:35.089 --> 00:20:42.230 that way again, John. You're no fun. No fun anymore 00:20:42.230 --> 00:20:46.309 at all, John. Alex, you come and dance with me. 00:20:46.410 --> 00:20:51.670 No, thank you. You are afraid, Alex. Yes, I am 00:20:51.670 --> 00:20:56.730 afraid. John, you heard. He is afraid. I said 00:20:56.730 --> 00:21:01.019 I was afraid, Lucy, but not... Terrified. Fiddlesticks, 00:21:01.420 --> 00:21:04.440 you play with words, Alex Garth. And you want 00:21:04.440 --> 00:21:07.839 me to play ghostly games with death, don't you, 00:21:07.940 --> 00:21:23.380 Lucy? Alex, Alex Garth, wake up. I wasn't asleep. 00:21:24.440 --> 00:21:28.099 You are here to drive me from my home. Are you 00:21:28.099 --> 00:21:32.039 happy in your home, Lucy? I will not leave. You 00:21:32.039 --> 00:21:36.000 shall fail. Others have tried. Would you like 00:21:36.000 --> 00:21:39.380 to see what happened to those others? I have 00:21:39.380 --> 00:21:43.799 a mirror you can look into in my room, just down 00:21:43.799 --> 00:21:48.180 the hall. Look in that mirror, if you dare. I 00:21:48.180 --> 00:21:51.559 think I've been given a fairly good idea already. 00:21:52.039 --> 00:21:56.839 Leave this house, Alex. For your own sake leave 00:21:56.839 --> 00:22:02.519 tomorrow morning Lucy tomorrow will be too late 00:22:02.519 --> 00:22:08.940 Is going around Sit down Alex Garth and the room 00:22:08.940 --> 00:22:13.079 will stop spinning There that's better. Isn't 00:22:13.079 --> 00:22:19.819 it? I'm still dizzy. I warned you now Alex Garth 00:22:19.819 --> 00:22:27.079 now look at me good Lord! You do not find me 00:22:27.079 --> 00:22:31.220 beautiful now, Alex Garth. Not now, with the 00:22:31.220 --> 00:22:34.099 blood flowing from the wounds inflicted on me 00:22:34.099 --> 00:22:40.160 by my husband, when he murdered me. Not murdered, 00:22:41.200 --> 00:22:45.880 executed. You would not like to kiss me now, 00:22:46.079 --> 00:22:48.869 Alex Garth. Stay! Where you are. You need not 00:22:48.869 --> 00:22:52.369 worry about my blood staining your clothes. It 00:22:52.369 --> 00:22:56.789 will not even show. Stay away! Stay away! I warned 00:22:56.789 --> 00:23:00.789 you, Alex Garth. You think no one would wish 00:23:00.789 --> 00:23:04.789 to embrace me now with the cuts and wounds and 00:23:04.789 --> 00:23:07.890 blood disfiguring me. Is that what you think? 00:23:07.910 --> 00:23:11.269 I'm not listening! Someone will wish to kiss 00:23:11.269 --> 00:23:15.549 me. Someone who loves me. I will kiss you, Lucy. 00:23:17.130 --> 00:23:20.490 I will embrace you. And I will embrace you, John, 00:23:20.529 --> 00:23:24.309 my love, even with the blood flowing from your 00:23:24.309 --> 00:23:27.750 pores. I can't look. I can't. It will do you 00:23:27.750 --> 00:23:30.670 no good to put your hands over your eyes, Alex. 00:23:31.130 --> 00:23:34.130 You will still see the bloodied lover's kiss. 00:23:34.150 --> 00:23:37.930 No, I won't witness this horror. My thoughts 00:23:37.930 --> 00:23:42.450 are mine and they're real. You're phantoms and 00:23:42.450 --> 00:23:47.319 you don't exist. For many we don't. But you know 00:23:47.319 --> 00:23:51.960 that we do. We are here. And we are real. And 00:23:51.960 --> 00:23:55.039 the only way you can banish us from your mind's 00:23:55.039 --> 00:23:59.240 eye is to run. Run! As your wise friend did. 00:23:59.759 --> 00:24:03.200 Run and you'll see us no more! No! No, Lucy! 00:24:03.839 --> 00:24:16.619 I'm not leaving this house! This is the carriage 00:24:16.619 --> 00:24:20.539 bearing me to the burial ground Alex if you open 00:24:20.539 --> 00:24:24.539 your eyes you can see into the coffin The undertaker 00:24:24.539 --> 00:24:28.900 did a fine job. I looked almost as pretty as 00:24:28.900 --> 00:24:32.859 I did before I died I was wearing the dress you 00:24:32.859 --> 00:24:37.019 see me in Alex and The only mourner following 00:24:37.019 --> 00:24:40.579 the carriage was my mother the only person in 00:24:40.579 --> 00:24:43.440 the town who wasn't afraid of my husband's wrath 00:24:43.759 --> 00:24:47.920 the only person who didn't believe I was a wanton. 00:24:48.079 --> 00:24:55.119 Do you believe that? Yes. You do? Yes. Everyone 00:24:55.119 --> 00:25:00.259 feared Captain Hatch. And you, Lucy, most of 00:25:00.259 --> 00:25:06.839 all, you still fear him. No. Oh, why won't you 00:25:06.839 --> 00:25:12.079 go? Like you, Lucy, I am bound. How bound? By 00:25:12.079 --> 00:25:17.660 my knowledge. By my pride, by knowing if I leave 00:25:17.660 --> 00:25:22.000 now, I've failed. You have stayed longer than 00:25:22.000 --> 00:25:26.380 anyone. Not long enough? You mustn't stay. What 00:25:26.380 --> 00:25:30.740 you have seen is it will be worse and dangerous 00:25:30.740 --> 00:25:34.160 for you. Even more dangerous. You mean you're 00:25:34.160 --> 00:25:38.660 afraid for me? Yes. Why? You really don't know. 00:25:39.339 --> 00:25:43.569 Of course not. But you've seen John. Have you 00:25:43.569 --> 00:25:47.450 not noticed that you are very alike? Well, I 00:25:47.450 --> 00:25:50.910 really hadn't looked that closely. Would you? 00:25:51.430 --> 00:25:54.809 No, no, I believe you. Then you must see how 00:25:54.809 --> 00:25:59.289 dangerous it is for you now. Then help me. I 00:25:59.289 --> 00:26:02.950 cannot. If you would trust me and tell me what 00:26:02.950 --> 00:26:07.289 the control is, I could help. You're very wise, 00:26:07.549 --> 00:26:10.529 Alex, but this is something beyond your wisdom. 00:26:10.869 --> 00:26:15.160 Try me. It's impossible. I am held here by forces 00:26:15.160 --> 00:26:17.880 stronger than yours. How do you know what my 00:26:17.880 --> 00:26:21.779 powers are? I told you. You are not the first 00:26:21.779 --> 00:26:25.900 who has been here. But you are the bravest. And 00:26:25.900 --> 00:26:49.410 your courage will destroy you. Book, what are 00:26:49.410 --> 00:26:51.809 you doing? Mr. Flanders, I owe an apology. But 00:26:51.809 --> 00:26:54.150 I owe Alex a lot more than that. Mr. Flanders, 00:26:54.250 --> 00:26:56.509 you've got to get Alex out of that house. What 00:26:56.509 --> 00:27:00.869 happened? Just get him out. It's four o 'clock 00:27:00.869 --> 00:27:03.269 in the morning, Kelly. You woke me up. I'm not 00:27:03.269 --> 00:27:06.329 quite functioning yet. What did you see? What's 00:27:06.329 --> 00:27:09.609 in that house? Demons. I thought you didn't believe 00:27:09.609 --> 00:27:12.890 in ghosts. No, but I believe in evil. And Mr. 00:27:13.150 --> 00:27:16.329 Flanders, in that house, you can actually feel 00:27:16.329 --> 00:27:19.630 the... presence of evil it's all around you and 00:27:19.630 --> 00:27:23.910 it's dangerous now listen Kelly Garth knew what 00:27:23.910 --> 00:27:26.210 he was getting into it's up to him to handle 00:27:26.210 --> 00:27:29.150 it I tell you his life is at stake well if you're 00:27:29.150 --> 00:27:31.009 convinced of that then it's up to you to do something 00:27:31.009 --> 00:27:40.329 about it not to run away you speak to me of powers 00:27:40.329 --> 00:27:44.069 Alex Garth yet you are afraid to test them what 00:27:44.069 --> 00:27:48.420 kind of test do you propose The mirror. The mirror 00:27:48.420 --> 00:27:54.940 in my room. Let's go. Well, come along. I'm warning 00:27:54.940 --> 00:28:01.940 you, Alex Garth. Wait a second. Your death machine 00:28:01.940 --> 00:28:05.539 will not help you. Death machine? Oh, you mean 00:28:05.539 --> 00:28:08.740 the revolver. Call it what you like. It spits 00:28:08.740 --> 00:28:11.660 fire and noise and has been used stupidly by 00:28:11.660 --> 00:28:15.759 stupid people against us. Surely you know better, 00:28:16.059 --> 00:28:19.220 Alex Garth. No, it gives me something to hold 00:28:19.220 --> 00:28:23.700 on to. Come on. You could try to hold on to me. 00:28:24.819 --> 00:28:29.359 This, this is your room? You fear to go in? Well, 00:28:29.359 --> 00:28:33.380 I'm wondering what it is about this room that... 00:28:33.380 --> 00:28:37.140 This is the room Tim ran out of, isn't it? The 00:28:37.140 --> 00:28:41.640 mirror is over here. Now, look in the mirror, 00:28:41.779 --> 00:28:48.950 Alex Garth. Look well. See, Alex Garth? Is that 00:28:48.950 --> 00:28:53.730 you, Lucy? It is I, Alex. It's a very young girl. 00:28:54.009 --> 00:28:58.609 And your schoolmates? Who are they? Schoolmates. 00:28:59.750 --> 00:29:04.210 Is John among them? Look. Look in the mirror. 00:29:05.509 --> 00:29:11.309 I... I can't make out the faces. Now you're grown, 00:29:11.410 --> 00:29:28.680 I... Mirror, mirror on the wall. What did the 00:29:28.680 --> 00:29:31.900 hunter of ghosts, Alex Garth, see in the mirror 00:29:31.900 --> 00:29:35.019 that so terrified him he lost his head and shot 00:29:35.019 --> 00:29:38.859 at the images in the glass? I'll be back shortly 00:29:38.859 --> 00:29:42.500 to tell you what Garth saw. when I return with 00:29:42.500 --> 00:29:58.180 Act 3. Some people believe in ghosts, some very 00:29:58.180 --> 00:30:01.339 thoughtful people. There are others who say, 00:30:01.559 --> 00:30:04.839 if you believe in ghosts, you will see ghosts. 00:30:05.660 --> 00:30:08.839 And Alex Garth, expert on the supernatural, is 00:30:08.839 --> 00:30:13.599 not only seeing, But talking to ghosts, as experienced 00:30:13.599 --> 00:30:16.940 and as cool a ghost hunter as Alex Garth, has 00:30:16.940 --> 00:30:20.099 just committed the childish act of firing his 00:30:20.099 --> 00:30:24.119 revolver into a mirror, shattering the glass 00:30:24.119 --> 00:30:27.680 into a million pieces, and doing the same to 00:30:27.680 --> 00:30:32.660 his composure. Stupid, stupid. Breaking the mirror 00:30:32.660 --> 00:30:36.160 isn't going to change anything, Alex Garth. The 00:30:36.160 --> 00:30:39.980 only thing you can do is leave. I'm not leaving, 00:30:40.200 --> 00:30:44.660 Lucy, until dawn. If you stay, your mind becomes 00:30:44.660 --> 00:30:47.779 a mirror. A mirror for all the things you don't 00:30:47.779 --> 00:30:51.059 want to look at. Well, if I have to look, I will. 00:30:51.359 --> 00:30:55.279 Then farewell, Alex Garth. You and I will see 00:30:55.279 --> 00:30:59.259 each other. But we can no longer talk. Until 00:30:59.259 --> 00:31:04.160 you join us join you you are doomed You will 00:31:04.160 --> 00:31:08.640 join John and me here in my home for all eternity 00:31:08.640 --> 00:31:14.160 and God help you Alex Garth Because I no longer 00:31:14.160 --> 00:31:29.950 can Lucy Lucy is that you Lucy, my darling, my 00:31:29.950 --> 00:31:34.910 love, I must go now. No, no. Please stay a little 00:31:34.910 --> 00:31:38.150 longer. Just a little longer, dear heart. Why 00:31:38.150 --> 00:31:41.250 did you marry him, Lucy? You went away, John, 00:31:41.329 --> 00:31:44.509 my love. You left and never said a word. How 00:31:44.509 --> 00:31:47.470 could I, Lucy? You know I didn't have a penny. 00:31:47.769 --> 00:31:50.329 You could have told me you loved me. You knew 00:31:50.329 --> 00:31:53.230 that. You knew it all the time we were growing 00:31:53.230 --> 00:31:56.630 up. Sometimes when people grow up, they change, 00:31:56.630 --> 00:32:00.650 John. And I was afraid you no longer cared for 00:32:00.650 --> 00:32:04.250 me. That's why you married the captain. I didn't 00:32:04.250 --> 00:32:08.349 want to be an old maid. There was no chance of 00:32:08.349 --> 00:32:13.589 that. I was afraid. I was afraid, John. He was 00:32:13.589 --> 00:32:21.069 so strong. John, I'm going to have a child. What? 00:32:21.289 --> 00:32:25.309 I'm going to have a baby, John. Your baby. You? 00:32:25.930 --> 00:32:28.750 You're sure? I'm sure. Then we have to leave. 00:32:29.029 --> 00:32:31.569 You must come away with me, Lucy. Where will 00:32:31.569 --> 00:32:35.549 we go? West. To a new place. For a fresh start. 00:32:36.190 --> 00:32:38.950 Somewhere where Ephraim can't find us. There 00:32:38.950 --> 00:32:44.190 is no such place. Of course there is. Lucy, you 00:32:44.190 --> 00:32:46.769 know what will happen if Ephraim discovers that... 00:32:46.769 --> 00:32:49.470 Ephraim won't be home for at least a week. He 00:32:49.470 --> 00:32:53.289 was in Trinidad the last I heard... Lucy! Lucy, 00:32:53.369 --> 00:33:14.730 it's me! Don't be wasting your time Lucy, it's 00:33:14.730 --> 00:33:19.910 been four months since I've seen you last All 00:33:19.910 --> 00:33:25.740 right, Lucy, where is he who John Rogers Have 00:33:25.740 --> 00:33:30.339 you gone mad, Ephraim? Aye, maybe. Mad with jealousy! 00:33:30.700 --> 00:33:34.640 Stop lying and tell me where he is! You're hurting 00:33:34.640 --> 00:33:37.920 me! Aye, and I'll be hurting you a lot more, 00:33:38.140 --> 00:33:41.319 unless you tell me where he is. Who put those 00:33:41.319 --> 00:33:46.200 terrible ideas into your head? The widow Davies, 00:33:46.339 --> 00:33:50.319 that's who. And you believe that old gossip? 00:33:50.440 --> 00:34:01.279 Tell me she lies! Tell me! Lie there and snivel 00:34:01.279 --> 00:34:04.339 whilst I rust out your fancy man from wherever 00:34:04.339 --> 00:34:08.360 he's cowering. There's no one here, Ephraim. 00:34:08.820 --> 00:34:14.019 Yes, God is my witness. No one here at all. Well, 00:34:14.139 --> 00:34:16.619 for your sake, I hope you're right. But the widow 00:34:16.619 --> 00:34:18.980 told me she saw him sneaking into this house 00:34:18.980 --> 00:34:56.579 tonight. She lied. She lied. got you with child 00:34:56.579 --> 00:35:01.000 then come here and stop me come on no you know 00:35:01.000 --> 00:35:04.239 I can't do that can't you mean you won't you 00:35:04.239 --> 00:35:06.619 know as well as I do I've never had anything 00:35:06.619 --> 00:35:09.599 to do with your wife just as you know very well 00:35:09.599 --> 00:35:13.460 who I am what I'm trying to do here then do it 00:35:13.460 --> 00:35:17.159 I'll match my blade against your pistol any time 00:35:17.159 --> 00:35:35.230 captain so you came out at last did you now You 00:35:35.230 --> 00:35:38.409 look as if you need it. Flanders, there isn't 00:35:38.409 --> 00:35:42.269 enough liquor in the world to warm me. Not after 00:35:42.269 --> 00:35:44.750 what I saw at your house. Then it is haunted. 00:35:45.269 --> 00:35:50.010 By ghosts beyond anything in my experience. Can 00:35:50.010 --> 00:35:55.869 you help me? I hope so, but I'm not sure. I managed 00:35:55.869 --> 00:35:59.510 to stay the night and I barely managed to survive. 00:36:00.730 --> 00:36:03.489 There's one room in the house. It seems to be 00:36:03.489 --> 00:36:08.170 the focal point of all the manifestations That's 00:36:08.170 --> 00:36:11.210 the room. I believe was occupied by Captain Hatch's 00:36:11.210 --> 00:36:15.170 young wife Lucy That's the room from which Tim 00:36:15.170 --> 00:36:19.170 ran last night And that's the room in which I 00:36:19.170 --> 00:36:24.250 saw things No, man should ever have to see And 00:36:24.250 --> 00:36:27.769 you propose to hire some work? That's impossible. 00:36:27.769 --> 00:36:30.489 I told you what happened when I had I can understand 00:36:30.489 --> 00:36:32.730 why no workmen from around this area will go 00:36:32.730 --> 00:36:35.829 near the place. I intend to import a couple of 00:36:35.829 --> 00:36:39.469 men I've used before. Well, you could try it, 00:36:39.469 --> 00:36:43.670 but what would you want them to do? To dig into 00:36:43.670 --> 00:36:47.469 and around that room and see if we can find something 00:36:47.469 --> 00:36:51.710 that will account for the hauntings. We? Well, 00:36:51.889 --> 00:36:55.269 you and I will be with them. A correction. I 00:36:55.269 --> 00:36:59.190 hired you, Garth. You'll be with them. and report 00:36:59.190 --> 00:37:09.250 back to me. Hello. Flanders, this is August Graf. 00:37:10.070 --> 00:37:11.710 I'm calling you from a diner just down the road 00:37:11.710 --> 00:37:15.550 from the house. With good news? With news. My 00:37:15.550 --> 00:37:20.289 workman walked out. Well, that's sad. If you 00:37:20.289 --> 00:37:24.010 want that house cleansed, all I ask is you meet 00:37:24.010 --> 00:37:27.090 me there in half an hour. Well, why do you need 00:37:27.090 --> 00:37:49.849 me? Well, for two. I see what you mean about 00:37:49.849 --> 00:37:53.090 this room. We'll try not to think about this 00:37:53.090 --> 00:37:55.909 house or the stories about it. Just hand me that 00:37:55.909 --> 00:37:59.010 hammer. What do you want with the hammer? I want 00:37:59.010 --> 00:38:04.250 to test these walls and floors. You think there's 00:38:04.250 --> 00:38:06.530 a secret passage or some nonsense like that? 00:38:06.590 --> 00:38:08.730 Well, I don't know what there is, but there must 00:38:08.730 --> 00:38:12.000 be something. You'll have to take my word for 00:38:12.000 --> 00:38:15.360 it that what goes on in this house isn't an ordinary 00:38:15.360 --> 00:38:18.820 lost or restless spirit seeking solace. It's 00:38:18.820 --> 00:38:23.039 something that's planned and controlled. How? 00:38:24.099 --> 00:38:32.639 That's what I hope to find out. Ah! Here. You 00:38:32.639 --> 00:38:37.159 found something. I think so. Listen. That sounds 00:38:37.159 --> 00:38:41.420 hollow. Yes. And the further down you go towards 00:38:41.420 --> 00:38:46.539 the floor, the holler it sounds. Hand me that 00:38:46.539 --> 00:38:50.679 crowbar. Well, maybe we should let things be. 00:38:50.719 --> 00:38:52.960 Not if you want to rid the house of the ghosts. 00:38:53.340 --> 00:38:58.340 But what will we find? Lord knows. Here goes. 00:39:01.460 --> 00:39:06.360 Wait. Can't you handle this without me? You scared? 00:39:07.069 --> 00:39:09.309 Well, I think I'd feel better if I stepped outside. 00:39:10.230 --> 00:39:15.429 Be over in a minute. I don't think I'm going 00:39:15.429 --> 00:39:17.050 to be able to stand this. What if this thing 00:39:17.050 --> 00:39:20.929 is something else? You get a thought and you're 00:39:20.929 --> 00:39:24.809 home and into it. Well, I can only think of the 00:39:24.809 --> 00:39:30.489 sea and the storm and a ship driving and a woman. 00:39:33.789 --> 00:39:37.309 Flanders, hold on to me. Hang on and look. Look 00:39:37.309 --> 00:39:39.690 there's nothing down there, but a room look look 00:39:39.690 --> 00:39:44.570 for yourself God why should I be so terrified? 00:39:45.789 --> 00:39:49.409 Why do I want to run there steps? Come on. No 00:39:49.409 --> 00:39:51.949 you want me to go down come on. It's only an 00:39:51.949 --> 00:39:56.050 empty room I'm not so sure it's empty come on 00:39:56.050 --> 00:40:05.809 No steady now What sir it's a table There's something 00:40:05.809 --> 00:40:14.929 on it I know. Let's see. It's just a plain saucer. 00:40:15.690 --> 00:40:19.210 Yeah, the saucer's plain, but look what's in 00:40:19.210 --> 00:40:24.070 it. What is that stuff? Well, I'm not sure, but 00:40:24.070 --> 00:40:29.070 it looks to me like something like mercury. I 00:40:29.070 --> 00:40:31.590 bet there's mercury in it. We'll have to have 00:40:31.590 --> 00:40:34.449 it analyzed. What's that on top of it? A needle. 00:40:34.840 --> 00:40:39.119 Look at it spin. I see. But don't you see anything 00:40:39.119 --> 00:40:42.780 else? No. Well, look under the saucer. Looks 00:40:42.780 --> 00:40:47.960 like a slip of paper. It does indeed. Let's have 00:40:47.960 --> 00:40:51.679 a look at it if I can get it out without disturbing 00:40:51.679 --> 00:40:58.559 the... There we are. There's writing on it. What 00:40:58.559 --> 00:41:04.059 does it say? As... Moves this needle, so moves 00:41:04.059 --> 00:41:08.719 my will. Accursed be this house and all who dwell 00:41:08.719 --> 00:41:13.519 therein. See to it that they find neither rest 00:41:13.519 --> 00:41:17.760 nor tranquility, but be doomed to eternal agony 00:41:17.760 --> 00:41:21.539 and torment beyond the ken of man and woman. 00:41:22.539 --> 00:41:26.460 To which I affix my seal and signature, Ephraim 00:41:26.460 --> 00:41:30.510 Hatch, Master of the Schooner, Lucy. Do you mean 00:41:30.510 --> 00:41:34.690 to tell me that this piece of paper... That source 00:41:34.690 --> 00:41:38.150 of liquid and a needle... Look out! The saucer! 00:41:38.670 --> 00:41:43.469 Be careful! Quick! Quick! The ladder! Hurry! 00:41:43.469 --> 00:41:49.670 Hurry, Flanders! The smoke! I can't breathe! 00:41:49.969 --> 00:42:06.010 The ladder! Quickly! I'm right behind you! How 00:42:06.010 --> 00:42:08.590 do you say thanks to a man who saved your life? 00:42:08.750 --> 00:42:11.449 Oh, don't, don't bother. You wouldn't have been 00:42:11.449 --> 00:42:14.010 down there in the first place if I hadn't insisted. 00:42:15.269 --> 00:42:19.550 I owed it to you to get you out of there. Garth. 00:42:20.150 --> 00:42:24.809 Yes? I want to explain about my upsetting the 00:42:24.809 --> 00:42:28.610 saucer. I wouldn't say this to anyone except 00:42:28.610 --> 00:42:34.050 you, but... I swear that something pushed my 00:42:34.050 --> 00:42:39.230 hand. Do you believe that? Yes, Flantis, I believe 00:42:39.230 --> 00:42:46.349 it. And now your house is cleansed. The fire 00:42:46.349 --> 00:42:56.349 will see to that. For those of you who are skeptical 00:42:56.349 --> 00:42:59.309 about the existence of such things as ghosts, 00:43:00.070 --> 00:43:03.989 I have a suggestion. Find a house reputed to 00:43:03.989 --> 00:43:08.320 be haunted. and spend a night there, and then 00:43:08.320 --> 00:43:23.119 let me know about it. I'll be back shortly. Alex 00:43:23.119 --> 00:43:26.820 Garth is still an avid investigator of the supernatural. 00:43:27.739 --> 00:43:30.679 However, he has a curious reluctance to tell 00:43:30.679 --> 00:43:33.760 people about what he saw during the night he 00:43:33.760 --> 00:43:36.309 spent in that house. on the New England coast. 00:43:37.030 --> 00:43:40.670 And he never admits that many times in the dead 00:43:40.670 --> 00:43:45.469 of night he sees again the face of Lucy, her 00:43:45.469 --> 00:43:48.829 lover, and the terrible sword of Captain Ephraim 00:43:48.829 --> 00:43:53.010 Hatch. And he awakens with his mouth open in 00:43:53.010 --> 00:43:57.650 a soundless scream. Our cast included William 00:43:57.650 --> 00:44:01.690 Prince, Ralph Bell, Joan Tyson, William Redfield, 00:44:02.250 --> 00:44:05.300 and Gil Mack. The entire production was under 00:44:05.300 --> 00:44:10.139 the direction of Hyman Brown. This is E .G. Marshall 00:44:10.139 --> 00:44:12.739 inviting you to return to our Mystery Theatre 00:44:12.739 --> 00:44:18.099 for another adventure in the macabre.
