My name is Victoria Winters.

I know I shouldn't be afraid, and yet
the great house on Widow's Hill carries

the dusty smell of fear.

It moves through the paneled rooms and
dark corridors.

It seeps down from the wall.

and touches the heart of everyone who
enters.

I'll get it, Miss Winters.

Hello? Oh, hello, Roger.

Yes, she's here.

What?

No, Carolyn's not home.

She went into town.

I haven't the faintest idea where she
went, Roger.

Well, I'm sure Miss Winters will still
be here when you... Roger, I have no

intention of locking her in her room or
tying her down.

If you want to talk to her, come here
and do so.

That was your father, David.

I expect he'll be home soon.

There's no need to hide behind the
chair.

You're much too big for small hiding
places.

Are you going to tell my father about
the teacup?

Then you did do it.

Why, David, why did you do it? I didn't.

That's nonsense. It was on the tray
right here.

When I came in, it was on the floor,
broken.

I didn't touch it.

Then who did?

They did.

I was standing right over here, and the
cup was on the tray, and I saw it move

all by itself, and it fell on the floor,
and it broke.

David, David, things don't happen that
way.

They do here.

Lots of things happen here.

This is Mr. Devlin.

I want to be called in exactly half an
hour.

I have an important appointment and I
don't want to forget to leave.

That's right.

A half an hour.

Thank you.

I'm sorry to keep you waiting, Miss
Stoddard. Please come in.

Thank you.

How else can you tell what the monster
is like?

That's what you came for, isn't it?

Of course not.

Well, I suppose so, in a way.

Unless, of course, your uncle sent you
to see me.

Oh, Uncle Roger doesn't know I'm here.

Neither does my mother. It was entirely
my own idea.

Carolyn started in the lion's den.

Well, why don't you sit down? I'll fix
you a drink. What can you have? A

Ginger ale?

Nothing, thank you. Oh, no, no, not
there.

You'll be much more comfortable on the
sofa.

Thank you.

You're my first guest.

Miss Stoddard, did you know that?

I thought you grew up in Collinsport.

I did.

Didn't you have any friends?

Did. Past tense.

Did. Ten years is a long time, and I've
been away. Things change.

People change.

Any other questions?

Yes.

Why is my Uncle Roger so afraid of you?

I don't think I've said anything funny.
I'm sorry, Miss Stoddard.

I'm very sorry.

But that's marvelous.

Just marvelous.

If I were wearing my hat, I would take
it off to you.

You're direct to the point, and as I
say, just plain marvelous.

You still haven't answered my question.
But there is no answer.

You see, there's absolutely no reason
why Roger Collins should be afraid of

I don't think you're being honest with
me. Miss Stoddard.

Some people live in the past.

All I care about is the future.

And your uncle isn't involved in my
future, not this much.

Now I've spoiled your fun, haven't I?

What do you mean?

Well, it's hardly worth it jumping into
a lake to rescue someone and then

finding out that they're not drowning at
all.

And on that bit of wisdom, I'm going to
fix myself a drink.

Can I get you something?

some ginger ale or something.

Great. Can I help?

Oh, you stay right there.

Be right out.

One ginger ale coming up.

Not much of a view, is it? I love it.

Well, when you've traveled as much as I
have, all main streets look pretty much

alike.

Here, right out of the can.

Thank you.

I'm a bottle drinker myself.

You know, when I was a kid, I used to
roam these beaches looking for empty

bottles.

Built my first fortune that way.

Forty cents in five hours.

Not quite the same thing as half a
million dollars, is it?

Beg your pardon? Of course, the money
isn't certain, but to get a chance at

deal... You'll have to leave here in a
day or so and fly down to Venezuela.

How did you... Miss Donald, I'm not very
happy about people reading my mail.

Then you shouldn't leave it lying
around.

I wish you'd forget that you ever saw
that.

But how can I when it proves you were
right?

I haven't the faintest idea of what
you're talking about.

Well, Uncle Roger seems to think you've
come here to settle down and... I don't

know... create all kinds of problems for
him. But I told you I wasn't interested

in your uncle. Not at all.

How could you be if you're thinking of
leaving in a day or two?

Miss Stark, please.

Please.

As far as you're concerned, that deal
doesn't exist.

And I'm here for an indefinite stay.

Anything you say.

To the death of the monster.

To the death of the monster.

Nobody's around when you want them.

You're doing too much of that, Roger,
lately.

It's a very proper sisterly remark, but
I'm in no danger of becoming an

alcoholic on the strength of one drink.

Miss Winters still here?

Yes, she's upstairs in her room.

Do you know that your Miss Winters was
in town today?

Yes. Do you know why she was there?

Yes, to make a private telephone call.

A private meeting is more like it, Liz,
with our ubiquitous friend, Burke

Devlin. Burke?

That's right.

Burke and Miss Winters. Are you sure?

You mean she didn't tell you about it?

Well, I'll tell you, Liz.

Burke is filled with hate, and he's
going to use every angle he can find to

us down, including that 20 -year -old
girl I warned you not to bring into this

house. What makes you think she can tell
him anything that would harm him?

Are you sure she can't?

Elizabeth.

What do you know about this girl?

Why did you hire her?

To take care of David.

Is that the real reason?

The best way to take care of that boy
would be to put him in an institution

you know it.

How can you talk that way about your own
son? Because it's the truth.

And you know it's the truth.

Roger, I won't permit you to speak that
way about David.

You mean you won't let me be honest?

Ten years ago, Roger.

Ten years ago, you and I had an
agreement.

After the trouble with Burke, you left
Collins Court and I sent you money.

Every month for ten years. And you
promised never to come back.

But you are back.

And this is still my house, and don't
you forget it.

You wouldn't let me forget it.

And there's another thing you'd better
remember.

You're here for one reason. For one
reason only.

David.

And I cannot allow you to attack David
like this because of Burke Devlin or

anyone else.

Is that clear?

How long have you been there?

Get to your feet and answer me.

I told you to get to your feet.

You're not going to send me away.

I wish I... All right, David. Get to
your room.

Aunt Elizabeth would throw you out of
the house if you tried, wouldn't she? I

told you to go to your room.

She sent you away once. I heard she sent
you away. All right, David.

Everybody wants to send you away.
Everybody.

What are you talking about?

I remember.

I remember that big fight you had with
Mother.

She wanted to send you away, but she
couldn't because of Burke Devlin. David,

you shouldn't make up stories like that.

It's not a story. It's true.

But you know you've never heard me
mention the name of Burke Devlin until

today, in this room.

I heard it lots of times when you and
Mother used to fight.

What else did you hear?

Nothing.

I want to know what else you heard,
David.

Let me go. Let me go. You're going to
tell me what you heard, every word of

Only his name. That's all. Only his
name. You rotten little liar. Let me go.

Mother. Mother.

What are you doing to him?

Stay out of this, Liz.

Don't let him hurt me. Don't worry. No
one's going to hurt you.

He was hiding behind a chair.

He heard every word we said. That's no
reason to... David, why don't you go

along to your room? We'll talk about
this later.

You're not going to let him send me
away, are you? Of course not. Now go

I hope Bert Devin comes back here.

And I hope he gets even with you.

I hope he gets even!

Did you really travel to all those
places?

Every one of them.

Sure I can't get you a ginger ale?

One is all I can handle, thanks.

Uncle Roger once were good friends,
weren't you?

Uh -huh.

Funny, I don't ever remember seeing you
around.

Well, you were very young at the time.

Ten years?

That's a long time.

What really did happen between you and
Uncle Roger? Oh, now, I thought we

decided that was past history.

Gone and forgotten.

Yes, I know that's what you said. But
you're not sure that I'm not still

to fool you. Is that it?

Something like that.

Maybe I am.

Hello?

Oh, excuse me. It's long distance.
Venezuela.

Hello?

You have to talk louder, Jose. I can
hardly hear you.

Yes, yes, that's better.

Of course I got your letter.

Yes, yes, I think I'm interested.

No, there's nothing important holding me
here.

Well, you know me, Jose. I get restless.

A couple of days in a place like this is
about all I can stand.

Well, keep it alive, Jose.

I'll phone you in the morning.

Right.

Say hello to the missus.

Bye.

Sorry, a little business deal.

Then it's really true.

About the deal, I mean.

Of course it is. You saw the letter,
didn't you?

Yes. But then I began to think about it.
I see.

And you figured I'd put the letter there
so that you would see it. Now, why

would I do that?

Well, I think you were only here for a
few days, so I'd be sure you were

visiting and not just... Huh?

You know.

You mean plotting against your family?

Well, you've got quite an imagination,
Miss Stoddard.

It's just that I heard so much about it.
Well, maybe it's all true. How can you

be sure?

Maybe I am trying to trick you into
thinking that I'm the local boy visiting

old hometown, while all the time I'm
plotting deep, dark deeds of revenge

against all the people that you love.

You don't have to rub it in. No, really.

How do you know I didn't put that letter
there for you to see? How do you know I

didn't arrange that phone call?

Look, I'll tell you what I'll do.

Why don't you call the switchboard and
ask them? Don't be silly. No, I insist.

If you think that's the kind of stunt I
would... Mr. Devlin, you're embarrassing

me.

Please.

Well, I just want you to be sure that
I'm being honest with you.

I am sure.

No doubt?

No doubt.

I think it's time we got better
acquainted.

David, you frightened me so.

I must have fallen asleep.

You were talking.

Was I?

Where have you been? How did you get so
dirty?

We're talking about goats.

I'm getting old, David.

What have you got in your hand?

Where are they, Aunt Elizabeth?

Where are the goats?

In your mind, David.

Only in your mind.

Like that man, Burke Devlin?

No.

No, he's very real indeed.

Perhaps much too real.

Do you think he'd really try him?

I'd rather not. talk about him, David.
What do you have in your hand?

Only a shell, that's all.

Only a seashell. Let me see it.

Hello, Mother.

Carolyn, where have you been all this
time?

With a friend.

You remember him, don't you?

Hello, Mrs. Stoddard.
