Came across a tape recording the other day, that  I made in December 1971 from the "Edge of Night."

 

In it, Cookie, (Fran Sharon) is being pursued by a ghostly visitation, a ghost with a woman's voice who urges her to swallow the whole bottle of sleeping tablets by her bedside. The eerie music seems to be aiming at the "Dark Shadows" effect. Though it was I doing the taping, I don't any longer recall this plot line.

 

Any additional information would be much appreciated.

I think the story you are looking for can be found around October (towards the bottom) It involved Kate Sloane and Cookie living with Bill and Martha Marceau.

 

Hope this is the right one.

 

 

 

II had forgotten that Cookie had been living with Bill and Martha (and still do not remember it), but I am not surprised since Cookie and Martha seemed to be best friends and had worked together for a long time in the police department.

 

I think that Ron had been giving her troubles.   This was probably during one of the times that she (Ms. Sharon) and husband Edward Kemmer (Malcolm) were expecting one of their children.

 

I remember that Cecila Burns was a character that she met in a sanitarium.
