- Now why would

she tell you that?

- Because you live

in the funny house.

- I live in a funny house, do I?

What's so funny about my house?

- It's haunted and

you're a ghost.

- Miss?

Are you alright?

Sullivan, tom Sullivan.

- Are you sure you didn't see

that big black car?

- No, but then I had

just turned onto county road.

- Oh, that light.

I'm positive I turned

it off before I left.

Would you mind walking

me to the door?

- Certainly.

- You really don't have to wait.

- I want to.

- Make yourself comfortable

in the living room.

I'll go upstairs and

I'll be down in a minute.

It was nothing.

I guess the wiring's

just shot in this house.

That's a photograph of my aunt.

- She was a beautiful woman.

You have her eyes.

- Oh, do you think so?

Would you like

something to drink?

I have wine, tea, coffee.

- No, thank you.

I've really got to go.

- Well thank you for everything.

- It's my pleasure.

I'll see to it that

your car gets back home.

- Oh no, please don't bother.

I'll call a tow truck.

- I insist.

Besides it'll give me an opportunity

to see you again, Jane.

- Alright, well I'm

certainly glad you showed up

when you did.

Good night.

September 19th.

A stranger came to

the house today.

His name is Robert.

He was very polite and

we sat on the porch

and talked for hours.

He was very handsome

and anyone could see

he was well bred.

I'm a little ashamed that

i let him hold my hand.

But there seemed no harm in it.

I'm powerless to stop it.

There's something strange

and wonderful about him.

He brought me a gift.

A beautiful locket with

an unusual symbol on it.

September 21st, can it be true?

After two days, i

write these words

with a mixture of fear and joy.

I'm in love with Robert.

I cannot help myself.

Today I gave myself

to him completely.

I'm alive at the

sound of his voice,

the touch of his hand.

He is the master of my body.

How can I tell Louis?

That I can never marry him because i

have met another man.

Get away from here.

Get out of here, I have a gun.

Tom, I didn't hear you come up.

Oh you brought my car.

Thank you.

- You have company today?

- Oh just a local boy.

I hired him to help

me around the house.

Would you like to come

in for a few minutes?

- Thanks just the same.

But not now.

Jane, what's the matter?

- Somebody broke into

the house last night.

I don't know what it is

but there's something

strange going on

andljustcant

put my finger on it.

- Nothing happened

to you, did it?

- No, I'm fine.

It's just I'm a little scared.

- Let's go out tonight, Jane.

Maybe you need to relax.

- I'd love to get out.

- Eight o'clock.

- Good.
