History

The Angel receives a letter from a lawyer informing him that he is one of the last surviving distant family members of the Harmon estate and that he is to come to Blackmoor, England. Arriving at Harmon Manor, he meets his other distant relatives Colonel Webber Woodson and his daughter Myrna, who are waiting for another family member that lives in Australia (Charles Harmon).

Inside, Woodson tells the Angel that the property is apparently haunted ever since Duke Harmon died, and that there are jewels hidden somewhere in the house. Woodson leaves the Angel and Myrna alone to inspect the cellar. Down there, Woodson finds a coffin that suddenly springs open and he is accosted by what appears to be the ghost of Duke Harmon. Woodson's weak heart causes him to pass out. Later, Myrna begins to worry about her father, and they find him in the basement as he recovers. He tells them about his encounter with the "ghost" and the Angel checks the coffin and finds it empty. They then take Woodson to bed and they all retire for the night.

In his room, the Angel is confronted by the ghost of Duke Harmon. Proving that the ghost is real, the Angel is told that he died a coward dying from a gunshot while fleeing from an enemy. He tells the Angel that once one of his descendant commits an act of bravery, he will finally be able to rest.

The next morning, the Angel saves Myrna and Colonel Woodson from a falling chandelier. Then the organ starts playing, and the Angel finds that there is a second set of keys in a hidden room behind the organ. He is knocked out by a mystery assailant. He wakes up in a crypt, and the ghost reappears, telling the Angel that someone is impersonating him and helps the Angel find the secret passage out of the room.

Examining the organ closer, they find an extra key and press it, revealing the hidden jewels from a hidden compartment in the organ. They are confronted by the fake ghost who reveals himself to be the missing relative from Australia who is trying to kill them all so that he can take all the jewels from himself. Suddenly another chandelier breaks loose and kills the man when it falls on him ending his threat. Because of the Angel's bravery, the real ghost tells him that he can now finally rest. The Angel then tells Myrna and the Colonel that they can keep his share of the fortune, as he does not need the money.[1]
