The Clock Struck Twelve
by James Reach
Synopsis
Peggy, Gail and Mimi, a struggling singing team, seek shelter from a storm in the Thomas mansion which is supposedly haunted since old Mr. Thomas was murdered by his grandson Dick who was identified as the killer by his sister, Lucille.
He escaped and she has a nervous breakdown.
Now on this night two years later they both have returned to the scene of the crime!
Then at midnight, there's horrendous happenings---the ghost walks, a shot rings out---and there's a startling denouement.
Easy to cast and produce.
