The Lady's Maid Bell
Miss Hartley is pleased to have found employment with Mrs Brymton as a lady's maid. She is somewhat concerned at having been hired sight unseen, but on her arrival at Brymton Hall she finds both her employer and the other servants in the house to be quite amenable. Mr. Brympton on the other hand is rude and nasty to his wife, but fortunately is frequently away and Mrs Brymton has formed a close friendship with a neighbor, Mr. Ranford. Miss Hartley is shaken however when she sees someone in the house who should not be there.
The Intercessor
Mr. Garvin is a writer who is seeking a quiet place to do his research and work on his book. Although he was staying in a small village, he find the children to be quite noisy and the local doctor, Mr. MacKinnon, suggests that he take a room with the Falshaw family, who have no children. Their farm is isolated and should provide him with the peace and quiet he needs. Soon after his arrival however, he hears a child crying and soon sees the ghost of a young girl. Garvin is a sympathetic man and he assumes that something happened in that house years ago.
Feet Foremost
A magnate buys an old house that has been abandoned since the early 19th century because it is haunted by a ghost of a 16 year old girl murdered by the lord of the manor, who, if carried across the threshold, will select a victim to kill from the inside out.
Afterward
A skeptical family moves into their new home despite warnings of a resident ghost. They soon become believers.
The Maze
A couple moves into a country estate that turns out to be haunted.
Seaton's Aunt
A terrified young boy is placed in the care of his eccentric aunt when his parents die. He quickly starts to believe that the woman is actually a witch in league with the Devil.
Bewitched
The story is set in a small English coastal town, around the turn of the century. A young woman, thought by many in the village to be a witch, dies suddenly one day. Not long after she's buried, the villagers begin to see her walking around the area and especially along the shoreline. The village minister begins to look into her life and her death, hoping to lay the spirit to rest.
The Demon Lover
Kathleen Drover and her family have closed their London house and relocated to the countryside for the duration of the war. It's 1941 and relatively speaking, all is well. She is happily married and her now adult son is in love with wonderful young woman. This leads her to reminisce about her own first love, a dashing RAF pilot who was killed in 1916. Visiting her London house to collect some personal items, she is shocked to find a note, apparently written by her long dead lover.
