Origin
The psychiatrist Doctor Knowles is treating a woman named Margo after the death of a famous musician named Martie Draw. According to Knowles, Margo has a strange melancholia since the famed Mr. Draw passed away.
Visiting Margo with Knowles, Grimm, The Ghost Doctor is introduced to Marie, Margo's nurse. They discover Margo has been poisoned. Grimm suspects Marie, as does Margo when she is alone talking to the nurse.
While Knowles rests in a chair, Margo tells Grimm about Martie Draw. Martie comes to Margo at night, "with his music", with a ghastly appearance. Margo is the only one who can see him.
While they are talking and unbeknownst to them, someone stabs Doctor Knowles with a knife to murder him. Saxophone strains are heard by Grimm, surprising Margo that he can hear it as well. Grimm leaves Margo, who sees the ghostly apparition of Martie Draw playing his saxophone when she is alone. Grimm discovers the murdered body of Doctor Knowles.
