It Happened on Sunday (A Story from The Hermit’s Cave)

In “It Happened on Sunday” a painter named Ray Putnam is haunted by the spirit of his dead wife, Meriam, and he invites his friend Dave Strait down to his cottage to witness the strange events.

Like everyone else, Dave believed that Ray and Meriam’s seven-year marriage had been a happy one, but Ray finally admits to him that his wife was insane. He tells Dave that Meriam used to come into his studio while he was working and distract him with strange behaviour and nasty threats.

This is a big surprise to Dave, but Ray’s housekeeper can vouch that it’s the truth. She can also back him up on something else. Like Ray, Mrs Orian knows that Meriam comes back, once a year, on the eve of her death. Meriam is only keeping her promise though and all she wants is revenge.
