What happens
Patrick Wilmot, a writer on the supernatural, is approached by Walter Templeton, a wealthy man shaken after a funeral in Meadowvale Cemetery. Templeton confides that he once had a wife, Mary Ellen Cleaver, and that he feels haunted by her. That night, Templeton returns to his empty house on Riverside Drive to retrieve papers from his safe, and strange events begin to unsettle him. Wilmot agrees to join him later, but the evening takes an alarming turn.

Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
