Mary hires a new car and continues her way. En route she sees several times a mysterious man, who in the film just like the Man shall be specified in writing. She sees him especially in reflections of Windows and mirrors, but no one else seems to see him. Mary notes to her horror that people seem to see her not always, as if they were invisible. It is so clear to the viewer that Mary the accident still has not survived, and now a spirit.

In the rest of the film Mary rocks back and forth between the world of the living and that of the dead. One moment there seems to be no problem, the next moment, she is hounded by "something" that frightens her. Mary reaches the Church where they had gotten a job as organist, but also the pastor here can not help her. As Mary becomes more familiar with the world of the Man, changed her personality. Also she feels attracted to a strange, deserted Pavilion where the guy seems to live.

Eventually Mary one evening in a strange trance and plays on the church organ a diabolical music that attracts a large load ghouls . The pastor caught her and relieve her right away. Mary flight for the ghouls to the Pavilion. When the priest together with an agent and a doctor her at will search in the Pavilion, it appears to have disappeared without a trace them.

In the final scene we see how Mary's car is hoisted out of the water, and her corpse is found. ==Division Of Roles[ Edit] ==
