description: WALTER WAS DEAD, WASN'T HE?
  
  Having lost her first love to the Church, Annette married his brother, who was soon to be governor of California. Rumor had it that the Burns fortune had bought Walter the governorship; and it was not secret that Harry K. Burns, wealthy and obsessed with power, wanted to see his brilliant stepson elected president of the United States. But, tragically, Walter was shot down before that ambition could be fulfilled, and Annette was whisked away to the family castle to recover from the shock. There, haunted by nightmare visions and terrified that she may be losing her mind, Annette has her worst fears realized when she comes face-to-face with Walter's ghost!
