Summary
:
Walpurgisnacht, the night when the dead return for a time of partying and revelry, is an ancienct and somehow dignified legend. Like other "fantasies" of the past, it may one day become a reality, through laser-holograms of the departed, kept up to date by programming them with news of new developments. But traditions change as people change... especially some unusual individuals.
