Soldier Folk: Oddities of death and life; from a man who finds that his death is uncertain, through the effects of war on the family, duty that survives death, to the memory of revenge. Some Haunted Houses - Part One: Encounters of the living with the spirits of the dead who have been bound into buildings. An old man revenges himself; a journalist investigates a haunted house; and the quivering vine that tangles the face of a deserted home. Some Haunted Houses - Part Two: Houses where the living are never seen again, memories of the mortuary live on, and a murdered man wanders through.
