Synopsis by Hal Erickson

Cub reporter Jimmy Olsen (Jack Larson) is lured to a sinister-looking house, where he is confronted by all manner of paranormal phenomena, seemingly orchestrated by a mysterious Lady in Black. But when Jimmy reports his experiences to fellow reporter Clark Kent (George Reeves), he is unable to prove anything. Before long, Clark--or rather, his alter ego Superman--has figured out that someone is trying to discredit Jimmy, the better to cover up a widespread smuggling operation. Virginia Christine, better known to TV addicts as kindly coffee-commercial spokeswoman Mrs. Olson, offers a rather surprising characterization in this episode.
