The narrator shares his story of suddenly running into his old best friend while in New York City- the problem being that his old pal had died 12 years ago. The old friend convinces our narrator to join him at a Ghost Club in a fashionable apartment in the city that night where he can meet a bevy of ghost celebrities from the past, which he agrees to. While at the huge gathering, King Ferdinand of Spain notices that our narrator is looking at a very rare set of old spoons, and tells him he must keep them, refusing to take no for an answer.  Upon leaving the party, the owner of the apartment confronts him outside and accuses him of breaking and entering his apartment.
