Transcript

A sealed book! Once again the keeper of the book is ready to open the ponderous volume in which has recorded all the secrets and mysteries of mankind through the ages. All the strange and mystifying stories of the past, the present, and the future.

Keeper of the book. What tale will you tell us this time? That tail shall I tell you? Have here tails of every kind, tails of murder, of madness, of dark deeds, and events strange beyond all belief.

Now let me see. Yes, yes, here's a tail for you. The story of a small and desolate island off the coast of New England and the people who lived on it. The title of the tale is Devil Island.

Here is a tale as it was told by Andrew and is written in the sealed book. It all began on that brief... The bottom day when I hired a motorboat to take me out to the island, Devil Island.

20 minutes later the boatman had landed me at the dock and left. Powering above me was a high cliff. And on top of it was the house. A huge stone mansion that looked as old and weather-beaten as a medieval castle.
