Synopsis:
Actor Vincent Sale takes up the challenge of staying overnight in a haunted house that belonged to inventor Amos Ameswell. When Sale is frightened out of the house earlier than expected, Linda Danvers decides to take up the challenge.
The next night, Linda stays in the house. She grows bored and turns on the television before falling asleep. She is awoken by the ghost of Jor-El who mocks her. She is then confronted by a Kryptonian thought-beast. After the beast is melted by the Girl of Steel's heat vision, she begins laughing hysterically. Supergirl has apparently gone mad.
The Phantom Zone criminals then reveal themselves and gloat over Supergirl's mental state. However, she was faking in order to turn off the device which resembled a television. The inventor actually created a device which allowed the Phantom Zone prisoners to appear on Earth. The inventor, wearing a cloak and carrying a scythe, then appears and attacks Supergirl.
