Synopsis

A widow hears her late husband's voice near her seaside home and encounters a spiritualist who seems to know her history. His apparent insight complicates a new romantic relationship. Grief makes his claims compelling just when she most needs to judge them clearly.

Behind the scenes

Crane Wilbur's story moved from PRC to Eagle-Lion and became a vehicle for Turhan Bey. The alternative title The Spiritualist makes explicit the profession on which its uncertainty depends.
