Seance

    The stranger walks into the dark room where the two men sit at the table and talk of travel.  The stranger joins in the conversation, saying: 'I have also traveled' and the two men look up and seem surprised at his sudden appearance.  In the corners of the ceiling there is a sound as of very swift wings, a muttering of motors, and a chattering of thin voices.  The stranger disappears.  His voice is heard first in this corner, then in that, until it fades away somewhere near the open window.  Where the stranger stood the two men find a railway ticket to an unknown destination.
