An 18th century tale recounts a coachman with a mysterious blue bag and a pale, lipless passenger who reveals his claim to a strange entailed property as they travel, with eerie hints of pursuit and a fox hunt ending in fog. The piece blends gothic suspense with a roadside encounter and a spectral air.
