Synopsis:
Deadman reads an article about a house in Wisconsin that is supposedly inhabited by the ghost of an aerialist Ann Colby. The house was the home of Byron Colby who is suspected of abusing and perhaps killing his wife. Colby owned the circus in which Ann performed and much of the estate still contains circus props.
Deadman arrives and soon discovers that the ghost story is true. He meets Ann, who possesses the ability to interact with solid objects. He falls for her immediately. However, the ghost of her husband is also on the scene. Ann suggests the a human body could help her escape from him. Deadman sets out to find one.
Deadman finds the comatose body of Jack Traynor, a former athlete. He takes over the Jack's body and is able to leave the hospital. Jack's wife Connie escorts him home without knowing that Deadman is in possession of her husband's form. When he leaves to find Ann, Connie insists on going with him. When they arrive, Colby's circus freaks attack and abduct Connie. Deadman is then forced to submit to Colby's terms.
