00:01:59Oh, hello, Janet.
00:02:05Explain yourself?
00:02:06Explain what?
00:02:07Brooding on the balcony.
00:02:08Just isn't being done this season.
00:02:10I wasn't brooding.
00:02:12Lying to one's sister's out this season, too.
00:02:15Strangest thing happened.
00:02:17I thought I heard a man's voice out over the ocean, calling my name.
00:02:21Next time he calls, ask him if he has a friend for me.
00:02:24I'm serious.
00:02:25How can you be serious?
00:02:27It was the wind.
00:02:28Are those firbhorns?
00:02:29Perhaps.
00:02:31But it sounded like...
00:02:34Paul.
00:02:38It's been two years now, Christine.
00:02:40I know.
00:02:42But for a moment, out over the ocean, I felt very close to him again.
00:02:49He used to love the ocean, you know, especially at night.
00:02:53He'd go racing down to the beach for a swim, no matter how late it was.
00:02:57And usually I'd be fool enough to go with him.
00:03:01If any husband of mine ever chased me into the ocean in the middle of the night, I'd shoot him.
00:03:07He did a lot of crazy things.
00:03:09Some of them bad.
00:03:12But I don't think I could ever love another man the way I love Paul.
00:03:16Chris, you've got to stop talking like this.
00:03:19You're getting morbid.
00:03:20Oh, it's not as bad as all that, Brad.
00:03:24It is bad.
00:03:26Look at this dress.
00:03:28You can't wear black when you're going out on a date.
00:03:31Looks as if you were still, well...
00:03:34Morning?
00:03:35Well, yes.
00:03:37I just happen to like black, that's all.
00:03:39I know.
00:03:40But just for tonight, it isn't exactly appropriate.
00:03:44And Chris, don't wear your wedding ring tonight either.
00:03:49Why not?
00:03:51It might make it awkward for Martin.
00:03:53Oh, is Martin going to propose again tonight?
00:03:56Well, he might.
00:03:59And you can't very well put an engagement ring on your finger if that's already there.
00:04:02By the way, what kind of a ring has Martin bought for me?
00:04:06An enormous diamond with...
00:04:07Oh, Chris, you will say yes tonight, won't you?
00:04:11I suppose I'd better.
00:04:12Otherwise, he might sue you for breach of promise.
00:04:15Oh, darling, I'm so excited.
00:04:17And I've got just the right dress all picked out for you.
00:04:21Will you wear it?
00:04:22Anything you say.
00:04:23And bring out my new ermine, will you?
00:04:29You know, Chris, I think your cloak with the sequins might look better on you tonight.
00:04:34I, uh, take it you have a date for tonight, too.
00:04:37As a matter of fact, I have.
00:04:38All right.
00:04:39I'll wear the sequins.
00:04:40You wear the urban.
00:04:41Well, if you insist.
00:04:43Thanks.
00:04:45I like your hair like that.
00:04:47But you could do with a little more lipstick.
00:04:49And, uh, you could do with a little less.
00:04:57Do you suppose it's Martin?
00:04:59You know Martin would never honk a horn at a lady.
00:05:01It's probably your young man.
00:05:03By the way, which young man is it tonight?
00:05:05It's, you know, I've forgotten.
00:05:07Have a good time and come home early.
00:05:09Well, I can't do both.
00:05:10Then you come home early.
00:05:12You come home engaged.
00:05:27Mrs. Faber's residence.
00:05:31Yes, sir.
00:05:34Mrs. Faber.
00:05:41It's Mr. Labber, ma'am.
00:05:42Thank you, Emily.
00:05:43I'll take it here.
00:05:46Hello, Martin.
00:05:47Don't tell me you're standing me up.
00:05:49No, no.
00:05:50It's just that some idiotic client came into the office at the last minute and I...
00:05:54Well, no, I know it's not serious, but I particularly didn't want to have anything interfere with tonight.
00:06:01Well, no, you see, I wanted to show you that I'm not always the lawyer with his mind on cases
00:06:05and affidavits.
00:06:07No, I'm really the romantic type with my mind on you.
00:06:12Well, I thought it was a nice speech.
00:06:14I dreamed it up this afternoon and fell in court.
00:06:17It doesn't matter if we're a little late, Martin.
00:06:19The first act's no good anyway.
00:06:21I'll walk over along the beach to your house.
00:06:23Then you won't have to waste the time driving over here.
00:06:25Oh, I wouldn't do that.
00:06:28But I want to walk over, Martin.
00:06:30I'll enjoy it.
00:06:31Oh, of course it's safe.
00:06:33Now stop talking like an old maid.
00:06:35Goodbye.
00:06:37There's dark down there, ma'am.
00:06:39And you, Emily, stop talking like Martin Abbott.
00:06:42Lock the patio door after me, will you?
00:06:44Good night.
00:06:58Good night.
00:07:28Good night.
00:07:59Christy
00:08:08Christy
00:08:19Christy
00:08:36Christy
00:08:38Christy
00:08:38Christy
00:08:49Christy
00:09:05Christy
00:09:07Christy
00:09:07Christy
00:09:10Christy
00:09:12Christy
00:09:17Christy
00:09:33I don't blame you for being frightened.
00:09:36You made a decision tonight that angered him.
00:09:38And now you're fighting to sustain it.
00:09:41Well, you have all my hopes fighting with you, madame.
00:09:49I felt you were married.
00:09:50I saw your husband dead and you moving toward a new marriage.
00:09:55And I see I was wrong.
00:09:58Sometimes I am.
00:10:00Good night and good bye.
00:10:08Wait.
00:10:09You weren't mistaken.
00:10:11My husband died two years ago.
00:10:14I felt I could not be wrong.
00:10:15I saw him dead.
00:10:18And his car in flames.
00:10:22I'm sorry.
00:10:23I don't understand how you know all this.
00:10:26I suppose people do talk.
00:10:28Do you live around here?
00:10:29No, I wish I did live on the ocean.
00:10:32Here is my name of where I live.
00:10:37Alexis.
00:10:39Psychic consultant.
00:10:41Oh.
00:10:42I see you place me in the same category
00:10:45with fortune tellers, snake charmers and magicians.
00:10:48Oh, well.
00:10:49Many people do.
00:10:50But you must know who I am.
00:10:53How else would you know all these things?
00:10:55Perhaps because we are very much alike.
00:10:57You and I.
00:11:00Free spirits, both of us.
00:11:01Like my friend here.
00:11:04We like the night and the mist of the ocean.
00:11:07The wind whispers to us and the sand feels cool under our feet.
00:11:13We are not like...
00:11:14I don't know.
00:11:15I have his name now.
00:11:17Like Martin.
00:11:18There is nothing wrong with Martin.
00:11:20Of course not.
00:11:20But if only he would understand how little he understands.
00:11:25Well, Martin is very logical.
00:11:28Yes.
00:11:28That's why you should marry him.
00:11:32Even free spirits have to come in out of the night sometimes
00:11:34and put on their shoes, pay their bills, go to the dentist,
00:11:38and of course family dinners on Sunday.
00:11:42You really shouldn't be so irritated by his little mannerisms.
00:11:46Like when he clears his throat.
00:11:49Announcing that he is going to kiss you any minute.
00:11:51Or when he counts off all his plans and the tips of his fingers.
00:11:55How could...
00:11:56How?
00:11:57I can't tell you how I know these things.
00:12:00But it hardly matters, does it?
00:12:02Since we are not going to meet again.
00:12:04Christine?
00:12:08Chris?
00:12:10Oh, over here, Martin.
00:12:13Oh, hi.
00:12:14Hello.
00:12:21You certainly had me scared.
00:12:23What kept you so long?
00:12:23Well, I was talking to this man.
00:12:26Well, he was here.
00:12:28Could I have imagined him?
00:12:30He was fantastic enough.
00:12:34Well, let's get going.
00:12:36Oh, I've torn my dress, Martin.
00:12:38I'll have to go back to the house.
00:12:40All right.
00:12:40We'll go to your house first.
00:12:42Skip the theater.
00:12:44Directly to the Blue Angel.
00:12:47What's the matter?
00:12:49Nothing.
00:12:49It's just that it's so late and I'm a little upset.
00:12:52Could we make it some other night?
00:12:54Of course.
00:12:57You sure you understand?
00:12:58When it concerns you, Christine, there's nothing I don't understand.
00:13:01I don't understand.
00:13:12Here, you better take this off my hands or I'll have to wear it to the office tomorrow.
00:13:15Fix yourself the drink.
00:13:16I've got to change this torn dress.
00:13:17Right.
00:13:47Martin, how flattering.
00:13:49I should have thought of this in the first place.
00:13:50This is much better than any nightclub.
00:13:52Yes, and just think.
00:13:53No head waiter, no smoke, no people.
00:13:56And at the end of the evening, no check.
00:13:59Oh, Martin, you think in such practical terms.
00:14:02I'm a very practical man.
00:14:04For instance, I just said that to make you pout.
00:14:07The better to do this.
00:14:12I've been trapped.
00:14:14Right.
00:14:15Now, if you'll just step over here to the sofa by the fire.
00:14:18Another trap?
00:14:18Definitely.
00:14:51Well, darling, what's the matter?
00:14:52That music.
00:14:53Well, it's just the phonograph.
00:14:55But we don't have that record.
00:14:56Of course you do.
00:14:57It was right on top of the cabinet.
00:15:00That's strange.
00:15:01What's the matter, Chris?
00:15:04I'm sorry, but that was Paul's favorite prelude.
00:15:07I've heard him played a hundred times right here in this room.
00:15:11Turn it off, will you?
00:15:14No, I won't.
00:15:19Look, darling.
00:15:21Paul's been gone too long for you to act like this.
00:15:24I know.
00:15:28Chris, I'm not saying this for my sake,
00:15:30but your whole life's ahead of you.
00:15:33You can't waste it probing into the past.
00:15:36If I can't make you forget Paul,
00:15:39well, find someone else who can.
00:15:42You're right, Martin.
00:15:44I'm sorry I acted like a child.
00:15:47Would you get me a drink?
00:15:49Right here, ready for you.
00:15:55So you think I should go find somebody new?
00:16:02Only if it's absolutely necessary.
00:16:04But I've been so out of touch with people lately, especially men.
00:16:08What do you expect me to do, bring some around?
00:16:11Well, that would be very nice of you.
00:16:13Well, you know how hard it is for me to meet new people.
00:16:19Well, I can see I'll just have to propose to you.
00:16:22Oh, Martin, I talked you into it.
00:16:24You sure did.
00:16:25And very fortunately for you, I just happened to have an engagement ring on me.
00:16:39Martin, it's lovely.
00:17:21kind of polít.
00:17:28And also, the police do very well.
00:17:40It's Paul.
00:17:43Can't you hear the ocean calling?
00:17:46Come on, Chris.
00:17:48Race you to the beach.
00:17:51That's when it's a coward.
00:18:01Here you are.
00:18:03You are a dog.
00:18:15You are a dog.
00:18:18You are a dog.
00:18:21And it's a dog.

00:21:51And it flung out like that.
00:21:54And my wedding dress isn't there?
00:21:56How could it be, Chris?
00:21:59It's been locked in the trunk room for years.
00:22:03It wasn't a nightmare, I tell you. I saw those things.
00:22:07I think it was Paul and he doesn't want me to marry.
00:22:09You've got some feeling that it's not loyal to Paul if you marry again.
00:22:13It's on your conscience and it makes you dream.
00:22:16Why don't you talk it over with an analyst?
00:22:18He wouldn't understand. He'd think I was losing my mind.
00:22:21Nobody would understand.
00:22:24Except perhaps Alexis.
00:22:26Alexis?
00:22:27Just somebody I once met.
00:22:29Come on.
00:22:33Get to bed.
00:22:36It's after three. You haven't got time for any more dreams tonight.
00:22:45Janet.
00:22:47While you're up, would you...
00:22:50get me a glass of water?
00:23:03Thanks.
00:23:03Janet.
00:23:06I thought I was supposed to be the baby in the family.
00:23:09Here, give me that water.
00:23:11Move over.
00:23:13Baby.
00:23:17Night, Chris.
00:23:19Night.
00:23:21Morning.
00:23:23Night.
00:23:32Night.
00:23:42Night.
00:24:48Childish, isn't it?
00:24:49I think the ocean and the fog were more effective.
00:24:55I agree, but in my work I deal with many different kinds of minds.
00:24:59Generally speaking, I think you could say that three types of people come here to see me.
00:25:04The first, a fairly large group, come here to scoff.
00:25:08And sometimes a few of them remain to pray.
00:25:12The second have childlike, credulous minds.
00:25:16They long to believe.
00:25:17They're tired and sad and need comfort.
00:25:21All this helps them.
00:25:23It creates an atmosphere.
00:25:27You see?
00:25:28A mood like music.
00:25:30And in it they find a few brief moments of comfort which helps them to continue with their grey little
00:25:35lives.
00:25:37And so I do not think it is so childish after all.
00:25:40Do you?
00:25:40And the third group?
00:25:42Ah.
00:25:43The third group is those of us who honestly explore the secrets of the outer world.
00:25:50I feel that you have come here today to join that group.
00:25:54Well, I...
00:25:55I did want to talk to you about something.
00:25:58I know.
00:25:59He was close to you last night.
00:26:03And he's close to you now.
00:26:05But wait.
00:26:08Maybe I should repel him.
00:26:10Not bring him closer.
00:26:12Why?
00:26:14His presence is so strong,
00:26:15it might be dangerous.
00:26:18How could Paul's presence possibly be dangerous to me?
00:26:22To your plans.
00:26:24You want to get married and lead what is termed a normal life?
00:26:30But if Paul is trying to reach me, then I want to help him.
00:26:35Have you thought what people will think?
00:26:38What Martin will think?
00:26:40I'm not afraid to think as I choose.
00:26:45I will help you.
00:26:50Now relax.
00:26:52Let your mind be free and receptive.
00:27:03Janet, you do have a tendency to dramatize and...
00:27:06Stop treating me like a child.
00:27:08I tell you she's been going to see him for weeks and...
00:27:15I don't know.
00:27:15Now do you believe me?
00:27:17Hmm.
00:27:22She's been reading psychic books too.
00:27:25I'm talking about Paul as if he were still alive.
00:27:28He gives me the creeps.
00:27:30Let's go.
00:27:31Now what are we going to do?
00:27:33We're going to get a detective,
00:27:34see what he can find out about this...
00:27:35this spook chaser.
00:27:38For 20 years I've been operating among these phony mediums as a private detective.
00:27:43And I've yet to find one concrete bit of evidence of communication with the dead.
00:27:47But my sister's absolutely convinced.
00:27:49He's told her things he couldn't know unless they were psychic.
00:27:53He's probably gone to a lot of trouble to investigate her past.
00:27:56They're thorough and clever.
00:27:57What I can't understand is Christine falling for such drivel.
00:28:02You'd be amazed if the people are due.
00:28:05No, thanks.
00:28:06There's a millionaire right in this town.
00:28:08Wouldn't buy a bag of popcorn without consulting his medium.
00:28:13What's this one's name?
00:28:14Alexis.
00:28:18It's a new one on me.
00:28:20Then they change their names often enough.
00:28:23How about a description?
00:28:26There's a picture of him in this pamphlet he wrote.
00:28:35This?
00:28:36I used to be a magician.
00:28:38That's how I got into this ranking.
00:28:51I know all their tricks.
00:28:57Alexis.
00:29:00It's called a Chicago in a case once.
00:29:02Young man named Maru.
00:29:05Swindled a society lady out of a whole hat full of money.
00:29:09That's Alexis.
00:29:10He certainly used to look corny.
00:29:11If that's Alexis, we can report him to the police.
00:29:14What charge?
00:29:15He served a stretch and that's that.
00:29:18At least Christine will be through with him.
00:29:20I mean, if we can prove he's a crook.
00:29:21How can we identify him?
00:29:23I could go out there and try to get his fingerprints.
00:29:27But I think the only time these fakes are really psychic
00:29:30is when there's a detective around.
00:29:33They look in their crystals and see you coming.
00:29:36Maybe we could send somebody you wouldn't know.
00:29:39Oh no, I think that...
00:30:02There's a scene.
00:30:04There's a scene.
00:30:14I don't have to go out there.
00:30:16It's one thing with my Facebook.
00:30:24That's a great scene.
00:30:27I think that I'll do so.
00:30:27No.
00:30:28No.
00:30:29Murphy! Murphy!
00:31:08Murphy! Murphy!
00:31:29Murphy! Murphy!
00:31:59Murphy!
00:32:27Your name, please.
00:32:29Harper. Mrs. Charles Harper.
00:32:32Not Mrs. Charles. G. Harper.
00:32:35Yes. I mean, no.
00:32:49Now concentrate, and soon your thoughts will merge with mine.
00:32:55Perhaps both hands would be better.
00:32:59Yes. Yes.
00:33:03So much better.
00:33:04I can feel your vibrations much more clearly now.
00:33:09Oh, but...
00:33:10But your pulse is racing.
00:33:12Are you excited?
00:33:15Are you excited?
00:33:16Nervous?
00:33:17No.
00:33:18Oh, but of course, this problem is troubling you.
00:33:21The question you wrote comes to me, but faintly, almost as though it were false.
00:33:34Oh, but another question comes through with all the power and strength of love and truth.
00:33:40You are concerned about someone you love.
00:33:43A woman.
00:33:44Your sister.
00:33:45Is it your sister?
00:33:47Yes.
00:33:48Yes.
00:33:48Older than you, but still you have a maternal protective feeling about her.
00:33:53In many ways, you are more mature than she.
00:33:58Golly.
00:33:59I'm glad somebody finally realized that.
00:34:02Of course, you didn't always feel that way.
00:34:04Once you were jealous of her.
00:34:06You envied her popularity in her pretty clothes, and you used to try them on when she went out.
00:34:12And this suited you because there is an air of maturity and sophistication about you.
00:34:18In many ways, especially intellectually, you are much older than the many young men who admire you.
00:34:24You know, I'd notice that.
00:34:27Does this feel uncomfortable to you?
00:34:32I...
00:34:34I think I'll have a cigarette.
00:34:39Mrs. Harper?
00:34:45Mrs. Harper?
00:34:49May I?
00:35:17What an attractive case.
00:35:26Mrs. Harper.
00:35:28I'm going to...
00:35:35Mrs. Harper.
00:35:36Mrs. Harper.
00:35:38Did you know why I wanted them?
00:35:40Mrs. Harper.
00:35:42Nor do I need to.
00:35:44It is enough for me to know that you wanted them.
00:35:56Alexis, I hope that nothing you've done to help my sister
00:35:59will get you into trouble with the police.
00:36:01I mean, if they should investigate you or your past life,
00:36:05would they find anything that would make trouble for you?
00:36:08Well, there are many things in my life of which I'm ashamed,
00:36:15but, and this may sound strange,
00:36:18the memory that I cherish is a term in prison.
00:36:22Oh, there are many brave men who were imprisoned
00:36:26in their fight for science and truth,
00:36:29and I'm proud to be one of them.
00:36:32I think you may be able to understand this.
00:36:37Oh, but anyway, do with this as you think best.
00:36:41I trust you.
00:37:04I trust you.
00:37:32Hey, Janet.
00:37:35Oh, hello, Martin.
00:37:36Did you get the fingerprints?
00:37:38Yes.
00:37:39Good.
00:37:39I erased them.
00:37:41Oh, Martin.
00:37:42He isn't at all the kind of a man we thought he was.
00:38:13Oh, hello, dear.
00:38:14Did you get the day off?
00:38:16About time to.
00:38:17Yeah, Mrs. Faber.
00:38:18No, Mrs. Faber.
00:38:20I'm getting sick of it.
00:38:22And how is our client?
00:38:24She's hooked good.
00:38:26Good, she is.
00:38:28And does she feel that her beloved husband is close to her?
00:38:31I'm surprised she hasn't asked me to lay an extra place at the dinner table.
00:38:35Here's a photograph of her parents.
00:38:37It was in the trunk where I found the wedding dress.
00:38:39Oh, that would be very useful.
00:38:44When are you going to put the bite on her?
00:38:46Oh, Vivian, you've put things so crudely.
00:38:49I imagine that very soon Mrs. Faber is going to press money on me to continue my psychic research.
00:38:55Good.
00:38:55I'm getting sick of this Swedish accent.
00:38:57I need a new role.
00:38:58Oh, I have a new assignment for you.
00:39:00Straight from the obituary column.
00:39:02A lonely millionaire who...
00:39:06I have no more appointments today.
00:39:09Oh, here.
00:39:10Help me get these things out of the way.
00:39:13What do you pay for those chunks of glass these days?
00:39:15Three dollars apiece.
00:39:17It used to be a dollar ninety-five.
00:39:18You know, somebody ought to do something about this high cost of living.
00:39:22You should complain.
00:39:23You're selling them for twenty-five bucks to your psychic students.
00:39:27I used to.
00:39:28But who am I to fight inflation?
00:39:30I'm charging fifty now.
00:39:32Well, expensive car.
00:39:40Expensive kills.
00:39:41I would say no brains and lots of money.
00:39:44So long as you're here, Vivian, you might as well check the car for me.
00:39:47There might be some papers or something in the glove compartment.
00:39:50Okay.
00:39:51And I'll use a turban in case you find out something.
00:39:54Okay.
00:40:05I'll use a turban in case you find out something.
00:40:06Okay.
00:40:06Let's go.
00:40:09Let's go.
00:40:17Bye.
00:40:18Bye.
00:40:27Bye.
00:40:28Bye.
00:40:29Bye.
00:40:30Bye.
00:40:31Bye.
00:40:52Oh, this is such a pleasure.
00:40:54I mean, I've heard...
00:41:15I'd rather not tonight, Martin.
00:41:17Really, I'm much too tired.
00:41:20Well, let's decide about Friday later.
00:41:23Call me tomorrow.
00:41:25Good night.
00:41:27Will that be all, Mrs. Fever?
00:41:31That's all, Emily. Thanks.
00:41:39Chris, let you and I spend the evening together.
00:41:44If you're tired, we could go to a movie.
00:41:45Actually, I'm busy tonight, Janet.
00:41:47I have an appointment.
00:41:49Chris, don't see Alexis tonight.
00:41:52Don't see him ever again.
00:41:54Janet, I thought we agreed not to discuss this.
00:41:57I'm not attacking Alexis.
00:41:58Honest, I think he'd be very good.
00:42:01For certain people.
00:42:02But not for me.
00:42:04Well, you see, when some people meet a fascinating personality, they're swept right off their feet.
00:42:11Like me?
00:42:12Yes.
00:42:14But other people can be more objective.
00:42:17Like me.
00:42:19It's true, Chris.
00:42:20In many ways, I'm more mature than you are.
00:42:24Janet, I have lived through most of your growing pains.
00:42:27And oftentimes, you've been insufferable.
00:42:29But tonight, this is...
00:42:30You can't be objective.
00:42:32You're getting sore just because I'm trying to give you some good advice.
00:42:35Give me advice?
00:42:36Janet, please.
00:42:37It is good advice.
00:42:39Alexis agrees with me.
00:42:41Alexis agrees with you?
00:42:45You see, I've talked to him a few times about your problem.
00:42:52I...
00:42:53I went to his house.
00:42:56How did you find him?
00:42:59Fascinating.
00:43:02Absolutely fascinating.
00:43:05You know, he has one of the most vibrant personalities.
00:43:12And you came to this conclusion while discussing my problem?
00:43:16Well, we talked a little about me, too.
00:43:21Janet...
00:43:22Good night.
00:43:24I'll leave you alone with your objectivity.
00:43:53Good night.
00:44:06I'll leave you alone with your message.
00:44:08I'll leave you alone with your face.
00:44:08Mywait
00:44:08Please come!
00:44:08I will see you later on the other side.
00:44:13Futu
00:44:22Alexis, I'm glad to see you. Don't pay any attention to it.
00:44:25I feel a disturbance.
00:44:27If we are to reach the outer world tonight,
00:44:29we must leave behind us all thoughts that are hostile
00:44:33and on a low emotional level.
00:44:39Now, Janet, this is your first séance.
00:44:41Yes, there must be some scepticism in your mind.
00:44:43Oh, no.
00:44:44Perhaps only in your subconscious mind,
00:44:46but nevertheless, we shall proceed under test conditions.
00:44:48If you would be good enough to hold this key for me.
00:44:52And, Christine, will you tie my wrists together securely?
00:44:55Oh, there's no need to do that, Alexis. I have every faith in you.
00:44:58Oh, but I insist for my own sake.
00:45:00Here, Chris, you take the key. I'll tie his wrist.
00:45:03All right, Janet, start with the right one.
00:45:07Tie one knot in the centre.
00:45:10Tightly.
00:45:12That's good.
00:45:13Now, tie my hands behind my back.
00:45:17Very tightly.
00:45:26Now, lock the cabinet
00:45:29so that you know that I cannot possibly move from this chair.
00:45:39Now, Christine, will you switch off the light?
00:45:42The switch is right in behind you.
00:45:48The room must be completely dark.
00:45:51Sit down on the table
00:45:57and clasp your hands together tightly
00:46:00with a key between your palms.
00:46:07If you see anything at all,
00:46:09do not move around
00:46:11or cry out.
00:46:51Chris, look.
00:46:55I don't remember him very well.
00:46:58Isn't that...
00:47:00Yes, Janet.
00:47:03The stairs.
00:47:19Do you feel it, Janet?
00:47:20The chill?
00:47:25Cold breeze.
00:47:28Like ice.
00:47:31Like ice.
00:47:57Don't you tell me,
00:48:03I actually see something next to it.
00:48:11I'd sure like to know what's going on in there.
00:48:14If he's staging a seance,
00:48:15it'd be a good opportunity to prove he's a phony.
00:48:18Let's sneak around back.
00:48:19There may be a window we can look through.
00:48:20Or climb through.
00:48:48Paul.
00:49:09Martin, what are you doing?
00:49:11Showing you what a phony this man is.
00:49:12Where's the key?
00:49:16If you think he's still in here.
00:49:31What is it?
00:49:34He's quick on his feet, I'll say that for him.
00:49:36How could he get out when I locked him in?
00:49:38He could show you if he wanted to.
00:49:40You tie a knot like this.
00:49:42And then?
00:49:45Martin, this is dreadful.
00:49:46Yes, it is.
00:49:47I'm afraid I must insist you don't come here again.
00:49:50Insist?
00:49:51By what right do you insist?
00:49:53Well, we're engaged.
00:49:54Well, even if we were married, I'd think as I pleased.
00:49:57And I won't close my mind to truth
00:49:59just because you don't happen to understand them.
00:50:01Truth, poppycock.
00:50:02Be logical, Chris.
00:50:03Be logical.
00:50:05Pardon me, Mr. Abbott.
00:50:06Do you think you could possibly
00:50:07defer your discussion long enough
00:50:10to untie this rope?
00:50:11Oh, I'm sorry, Alexis.
00:50:12I'll do it.
00:50:13I happen to understand more about these things
00:50:15than you do.
00:50:16Do you realize that man has a criminal record?
00:50:18Alexis told us he was once in prison,
00:50:20if that's what you mean.
00:50:21Sometimes a prison record
00:50:22is something to be proud of.
00:50:23I'm terribly sorry about this interruption, Alexis.
00:50:26I saw him.
00:50:27I saw Paul.
00:50:28We will bring him back.
00:50:30Even if you could bring him back,
00:50:32she'd be better off if he stayed where he is, dead.
00:50:34She never meant anything to him but money.
00:50:36Martin.
00:50:37He'd been married and divorced before,
00:50:38each time with cash settlements.
00:50:40If he'd lived,
00:50:41he'd have made you miserable
00:50:42and ended up where he belongs,
00:50:44in jail.
00:50:45I never thought you'd attack a dead man
00:50:47with lies he can't answer.
00:50:48Yes, it's in the records.
00:50:50When Martin disappeared,
00:50:51did you or did you not ask me to investigate?
00:50:54Yes.
00:50:54Well, in the course of my snooping,
00:50:57I found a second Mrs. Faber.
00:50:59Divorced in Las Vegas
00:51:00just six months before he married you.
00:51:02I think he went over there to see her.
00:51:05I never could find her, though,
00:51:06and Paul was dead, so...
00:51:08Seems very strange that, if it were true,
00:51:11you didn't find it necessary to tell Mrs. Faber.
00:51:13Yes, I suppose it is strange.
00:51:16And very silly to try and protect the girl you love.
00:51:20She only runs as fast as she can
00:51:22to another phony like you.
00:51:25Come on, Hoffman, let's get out of here.
00:51:28Going so soon?
00:51:29I hope we might stay around a while.
00:51:31We should stay.
00:51:32You'd soon learn what amazing powers Alexis has.
00:51:34I'm always willing to learn.
00:51:37Perhaps you'd like to resume the séance.
00:51:39Yes.
00:51:41Under real test conditions.
00:51:44And have you reported me for conducting a séance?
00:51:47I should say not.
00:51:49He probably could report you now.
00:51:51But if you'll sit down here at this table,
00:51:54and while we all hold hands like real good friends,
00:51:57if you can make any of your spirits walk or talk,
00:52:00I think Mr. Hoffman will let it ride this time.
00:52:02It's ridiculous.
00:52:04Show them, Alexis.
00:52:05Yes, Alexis.
00:52:07Do.
00:52:09I'm afraid in such hostile circumstances
00:52:11any contact with the spirit world
00:52:12would be practically impossible.
00:52:14Yeah, yeah.
00:52:14I've heard that pattern routine before.
00:52:17I know it's easier when you can run around the room in the dark.
00:52:19It doesn't run around in the dark.
00:52:22Go on, Alexis.
00:52:23Let them see for themselves what you can do.
00:52:26Okay, let's go.
00:52:46You know, you really ought to happen on the premises
00:52:48for tight spots like this.
00:52:50We checked, you see, to make sure you haven't.
00:52:53Shh, if you talk so loud.
00:52:55You mean we'll frighten the ghosts?
00:53:23Well, actually.
00:53:41It's Paul.
00:53:44It's his voice.
00:53:45I didn't mean to frighten you ever.
00:53:48But I had to get through to you somehow.
00:53:51I've always loved you.
00:53:53You know that.
00:53:54Yes, Paul.
00:53:56I didn't mean to frighten you ever.
00:54:02And if you could only believe, we could be together for always.
00:54:24There wasn't anybody out there.
00:54:26It's funny here. There's never anything like this.
00:54:30If everybody will excuse me, this has been a terrible strain.
00:54:37Come on, Chris. I'll take you home.
00:55:21What are you so startled about?
00:55:23You're used to raising the dead, aren't you?
00:55:26Although I guess with me it was a little easier.
00:55:28Because I'm only legally dead.
00:55:32You know, I've been watching you ever since my widow started coming to you, Alexis.
00:55:38I find your methods quite amusing.
00:55:45Excellent.
00:55:52How do you get out of that rope thing?
00:55:56Manipulation.
00:55:58But how did you...
00:55:59The cabinet?
00:56:05Just push a button and the idiots reach for their checkbooks.
00:56:08It isn't quite as simple as all that.
00:56:10There's a lot of psychology involved and research.
00:56:14Sounds dangerously like work.
00:56:17However, your bag of tricks can be useful to us in our present plans.
00:56:22We have plans.
00:56:25I didn't help you out tonight just for the fun of it, my friend.
00:56:28I can use you.
00:56:30You see, I need money.
00:56:32A lot of it.
00:56:34I don't understand.
00:56:36If you went back to Christine, you could have anything you want.
00:56:40You don't seem to have a very analytical mind.
00:56:42No, but Christine still loves you.
00:56:44She...
00:56:47You mean if you weren't dead, the police might want to know who it was they found burnt to death
00:56:50in your car?
00:56:52Exactly.
00:56:56Have I been using the wrong piece of music?
00:56:58What?
00:56:59Oh, no, no.
00:57:00You have the right one for Christine.
00:57:03I used this one for my first wife.
00:57:07Was it her ashes they found in the car?
00:57:10It was me they found in the car.
00:57:13Don't forget it.
00:57:15Perhaps I should point out that I'm in a very curious position.
00:57:19Since I'm believed dead, I could even kill a man.
00:57:22Nobody think of looking for me.
00:57:25You're in a curious position too, Alexis.
00:57:27You can't tell anybody I'm alive without exposing yourself.
00:57:31That's right, I can't.
00:57:33It is a very curious position.
00:57:35And a profitable one.
00:57:37I don't think it's too premature to congratulate you upon an extremely advantageous marriage.
00:57:43Marriage?
00:57:44Come, come, my friend.
00:57:46You must be prepared to make some small sacrifices.
00:57:48You don't expect me to marry Christine.
00:57:51No, no.
00:57:52The little one, Janet.
00:57:54She's still young enough to be dazzled by you.
00:57:58From then on, getting that estate will be like taking candy away from a baby.
00:58:02I don't think Christine would allow it.
00:58:05I'll take care of Christine.
00:58:13I'm a little rusty on this one.
00:58:15I'll have to practice.
00:58:18Have this piano tuned, will you?
00:58:41Thank you, Emily.
00:58:42Oh, no, ma'am.
00:58:43Not for you.
00:58:44Not after the night you've been having.
00:58:48That's for you.
00:58:49Hot milk?
00:58:50Yes, ma'am.
00:58:51I'd rather have the coffee.
00:58:56Oh, no, ma'am.
00:58:57I'll see that she drinks it, Emily.
00:59:01All right, I'll take it, but it won't do any good.
00:59:04You should really try and get more sleep, Christine.
00:59:06But I just can't.
00:59:09I'm never alone anymore.
00:59:11I keep hearing his voice now and seeing his face.
00:59:17It should comfort me, I suppose, but it's been frightening.
00:59:21Drink your milk while it's hot.
00:59:23It'll help.
00:59:25Alexis, do you suppose we've made a mistake?
00:59:29That first day when I came to your house, you said it might be better to repel Paul's spirit instead
00:59:34of bringing it closer.
00:59:37Perhaps you were right.
00:59:39Perhaps I was right.
00:59:40Then would it be better to try to break the contact now and not go...
00:59:44It's too late.
00:59:45At this stage, I could never break the contact.
00:59:48We'll have to finish what we started.
00:59:51If it would only bring me rest.
00:59:57Well, let's begin the seance now.
01:00:01I think that before we start, you should relax.
01:00:05And I should be more familiar with the surroundings.
01:00:09It is very difficult for me in a strange house.
01:00:13Perhaps if I walked around the outside for a while...
01:00:15I'll show you.
01:00:16We can even go to the ocean.
01:00:18Go ahead, Janet.
01:00:19I'm feeling rather tired.
01:00:46Go ahead, Janet.
01:00:52Watch your step.
01:00:53It's awfully steep.
01:01:25You know, I think I have talent along spirit lines.
01:01:29You do?
01:01:29Yes.
01:01:30I've been reading and studying.
01:01:32I think maybe I'm mediumistic.
01:01:34Oh.
01:01:35You know that seance we had at your house when Paul appeared?
01:01:38Yes.
01:01:39Was that Paul's first visitation?
01:01:42Alexis.
01:01:43Oh.
01:01:44Oh.
01:01:44Oh, yes, it was.
01:01:45You see?
01:01:46Maybe it's because I was there, all tuned in and sensitive.
01:01:51Well, it could be.
01:01:52Did you ever see a better spirit manifestation?
01:01:56No, darling.
01:01:57That was an all-time record.
01:02:12Are you thinking about my sister?
01:02:15Yes.
01:02:17She's very attractive, isn't she?
01:02:20Most men admire Chris.
01:02:22But Christine will always belong to Paul.
01:02:26I suppose that's true.
01:02:29I wish you wouldn't be so unhappy.
01:02:33Do you suppose they'll be joined together someday
01:02:37in celestial companionship through all eternity,
01:02:40like it says in the books?
01:02:42Yes, I'm sure they will.
01:02:46Alexis,
01:02:48do you think I'd make a good celestial companion?
01:02:52Darling, I think you'd be wonderful.
01:02:54And we'd love each other through all eternity?
01:02:57Oh, even longer.
01:02:59Alexis,
01:03:01why don't we start right here on the Earth plane?
01:03:34Besides,
01:03:36you or is not going to be in part of any place?
01:03:36I didn't live in the middle of the Earth.
01:03:37You may live in a while.
01:03:37I'm not going to be right here.
01:03:51I'm not going to be so happy.
01:03:52There are many ladies.
01:04:24I've come for you, dear.
01:04:33Hurry, Chris.
01:04:37Paul, wait.
01:04:40I'm frightened.
01:04:42There's nothing to be afraid of.
01:05:04I'm frightened.
01:05:26I'm afraid.
01:05:30Race you to the beach.
01:05:35Last one is a coward.
01:05:37I'm afraid.
01:05:39I'm afraid.
01:06:03I'm afraid.
01:06:05Help!
01:06:07Help!
01:06:08Help!
01:06:08Help!
01:06:09Help!
01:06:17THE END
01:06:58Alexis, she's not badly hurt.
01:07:00She's all right?
01:07:02I think she's all right.
01:07:20What are you doing here?
01:07:22Well, at the moment I'm opening the door, but not very wide.
01:07:26You're not exactly welcome here.
01:07:28Where's Emily?
01:07:29It's Thursday, Mr. Abbott.
01:07:31Her day off.
01:07:33Where's Frida?
01:07:34Frida left yesterday.
01:07:36She said she thought the house was haunted.
01:07:38I can see what she means.
01:07:41I want to talk to Mrs. Faber.
01:07:43I don't think she wants to talk to you.
01:07:47Janet.
01:07:49Where's Chris?
01:07:49She's in bed.
01:07:51She's making herself ill with this morbid nonsense.
01:07:53Oh, it isn't bad.
01:07:55Chris had a fall last night on the cliff.
01:07:57She might have killed herself if Alexis hadn't caught it.
01:07:59What was she doing on the cliff?
01:08:03Well, she thought she heard Paul calling.
01:08:07Janet.
01:08:09We'll always be together, Chris.
01:08:13Together.
01:08:14Always.
01:08:16Yes, Paul.
01:08:18You'll always be mine, Chris.
01:08:38We'll be together, Chris.
01:08:41Together.
01:08:42Always.
01:08:43Together.
01:08:45All right.
01:08:57What did the doctor say?
01:08:59Chris wouldn't have a doctor.
01:09:01You've got to be logical about this.
01:09:03She's not badly hurt.
01:09:05She's just bruised and shaken.
01:09:07In the first place, she's in a state of hysteria.
01:09:09In the second place, she shouldn't be in this house.
01:09:11Everything in it reminds her of Paul.
01:09:13And finally, she shouldn't be left alone for one second.
01:09:16There's no telling what she might do.
01:09:17But I'm with her all the time.
01:09:19I haven't let her...
01:09:23Chris!
01:09:27Chris!
01:09:30Chris!
01:09:47Chris!
01:09:49Martin!
01:09:50Chris, are you all right?
01:09:52Yes, of course.
01:09:53What's in that bottle?
01:09:56It's just aspirin.
01:09:58I've got a headache.
01:10:03Chris, it's dangerous for you to stay here.
01:10:05You need rest and care.
01:10:07Perhaps in a hospital.
01:10:09You're trying to separate us.
01:10:11I won't go to a hospital.
01:10:13I won't leave this house.
01:10:14Only until you're better, Chris.
01:10:15No!
01:10:16You're trying to drive them away again.
01:10:19Now get out.
01:10:20Get out.
01:10:26I'll leave before I upset her any more.
01:10:28I'll see you at the door, Martin.
01:10:37They've left the room.
01:10:38Then you can resume the treatment?
01:10:41If you hadn't tried to play the hero last night,
01:10:43all this wouldn't be necessary.
01:10:44I had to save Janet, didn't I?
01:10:46You're not falling in love with her, are you?
01:10:49Look, if I'm going to marry into this estate,
01:10:51there's got to be somebody for me to marry.
01:10:54Just by way of making conversation,
01:10:56that wife of mine in Las Vegas,
01:10:58the one who tried to back out on me
01:10:59and wanted her cash settlement back,
01:11:01I settled with her, but not for cash.
01:11:05Now, if you should back out on me,
01:11:07I wouldn't hesitate to settle with you either, Alexis.
01:11:09I know.
01:11:10Because you're in such a curious position.
01:11:24Paul?
01:11:30Paul.
01:11:32Oh, you're back.
01:11:34How long, Chris?
01:11:36How long must I wait?
01:11:39How long must I wait?
01:12:05How long, Chris?
01:12:12I'm ready.
01:12:12How long the time, Chris?
01:12:18How long, Chris?
01:12:22I'm looking for the COOL and the next person.
01:12:22Oh, nice.
01:12:23I'm not, Chris.
01:12:23I'm not.
01:12:23I'm not.
01:12:23I'm not.
01:12:24I'm not.
01:12:25You're not.
01:12:27But you're not.
01:12:29You're not.
01:12:30You're not.
01:12:52Let's go.
01:12:52Janet, get out of here.
01:12:54Why didn't you tell me you wanted money that badly?
01:12:57They've given it to you just to get rid...
01:13:01Pa!
01:13:03Yes, I'm alive.
01:13:06Legally, I'm dead. I'm going to stay that way.
01:13:09If you're alive, I won't be able to.
01:13:11It's too bad you came down here, Janet.
01:13:41Operator, get me Bracho, 7425.
01:13:47Michael, this is...
01:13:52Michael!
01:13:56Michael!
01:13:56Operator.
01:14:04Chris!
01:14:05Chris, wake up!
01:14:09I can't explain. Quick, we'll take the back stairs.
01:14:24Paul!
01:14:37You forgot, Paul.
01:14:40My profession is raising the dead.
01:14:50I can't explain, I don't have to die!
01:15:00Don't you?
01:15:04Did you leave the door?
01:15:05I can't...
01:15:11I need to go.
01:15:12I can't explain to your eigenstaffer.
01:15:13I know what to see.
01:15:13You're losing quite a bit of blood, aren't you, Alexis?
01:15:21Spirits don't need any blood.
01:15:29Do you think bullets can harm us ghosts?
01:15:52Too bad you missed. Those were your last two shots.
01:16:05The police are here, my friend. Your gun is empty.
01:16:10But at least you have been privileged to witness my best performance.
01:16:16You made one little mistake. I started with seven shells.
01:16:20I have one in the chamber.
01:16:33Alexis, you were wonderful.
01:16:36Yes. I guess there must be a better side to my nature.
01:16:42But now you must forget me.
01:16:44No, never.
01:16:45I don't need a crystal to see that your future is bright, Janet.
01:16:49Don't you go clinging to the past.
01:16:52I lived by feeding people's desire to escape the present.
01:16:59But you can't escape. For long.
01:17:03Alexis, I'm afraid for you.
01:17:06I'll be all right.
01:17:08I'll find some spirits that want to contact people.
01:17:17Open the window, Janet, please.
01:17:19Yes.
01:17:27Fly away, my friend.
01:17:30I won't need you anymore.
01:17:45I won't need you anymore.
01:17:49Maciej and Rockania.
01:17:50I won't need you anymore.
01:17:54Today is not even waiting for me.
