When a young couple come to view an house, they can't quite figure out why it's priced so cheaply. When they enquire of the occupier, she tells them that it might be because of rumours there is a ghost. Sceptical, they ask for details and so learn that the previous occupant liked to dabble in home electrics, and - well lets just say things didn't work out so well for him. They decide to go ahead anyway, and so "Trevor" (Maurice Kaufmann) and "Joan" (Nanette Newman) become the new owners. Not long after they arrive, she thinks she has seen a man in their living room, then the lamp starts to go off all by itself. Are they going mad or is it just a fault with the wiring? Well they decide to consult a ghost-hunter (Colin Gordon) who tells them all about ectoplasm and suggest they employ the services of a powerful spiritual medium (Molly Urquhart) to find out just what went on in their home before they arrived. The first half hour of this is all really rather pedestrian mixing a really slow pace with some mediocre writing and acting. It does pick up a little for the second half as the science takes over a little more and there is a twist in a tale of greed and murder, but it can never quite shake the look of a late night television feature that doesn't quite deliver. It has it's moments, but just too few and you'll never remember it afterwards.
