"Requiem for a Deadman"
Deadman is summoned to a seance at a psi-lab where four people are trying to raise the spirit of Boston Brand, whom they believe has been sabotaging their experiments. He suspects that one of the four, Annabelle, is actually subconsciously causing the accidents. Deadman enters her mind, but finds another consciousness present. Their battle in Annabelle's mind sends her into a coma. He finds that another of the group, Conrad Cabel, also possessed psychic powers. Deadman returns to Annabelle's mind to release her from Cabel's control and use her powers, with her help, to defeat Cabel.
