Sebastian Cabot hosts this anthology of two stories from a British TV series. In the first, dapper detective Chad Everett takes his antique car to a masquerade party in the country. He meets a girl who desperately wants him to take her back to London with him. As thunder begins to crackle, he leaves without her and wakes up the next morning alone on a country road. Was it all a dream or did he really travel back in time? In the second story, dapper detective Tom Adams is hired by an older woman to help her find a medium to communicate with her dead husband. He reveals the secrets of one charlatan after another, but little does she realize who is really after her money. This segment features a floating Indian head at a seance.
