The story
A mysterious woman calling herself Miriam Webster offers Jim, a bellboy at a hotel in Ventura, California, two thousand dollars to marry her that night. The two arrive at the home of Alfred Adrims, a local justice of the peace and, after a rushed ceremony, the woman savagely stabs Adrims to death and flees. Arriving home, she gloats about the murder to mute, elderly wheelchair-bound Helga.
