Synopsis

Adaptation from the book by Susan Hill. The story for this spine-tingler is unusual. A lawyer hires an actor to tutor him in recounting a story that has long haunted him: As a young man, the lawyer attended a funeral in a dark and remote part of England, and collected the personal papers of the deceased in the now empty, isolated house in the marsh. While there, he sees the mysterious figure of a woman in black, only to learn that wherever this specter appears, someone dies!
