Background

Stella "Sally" Saunders is the niece of Mrs. Benton. Her cousin is Betty.


During the events of Voodoo Man (1944) played by Louise Currie

Sally stops at a gas station and honks her horn and Nicholas goes outside and tells her the route to Twin Falls. Ralph flags down Sally and he asks her for a ride and she agrees to take him to the nearest gas station on her way. She tells Ralph she is to be the maid of honor for her cousin Betty's wedding and after unknowingly insulting Ralph, he tells her he is the man marrying Betty. They come across a road closed sign and take the detour and her car stalls. Ralph goes to check the battery and tells Sally he sees a house and will ask them for some help and walks off. She is then suddenly grabbed by Toby and Grego and brought into a secret tunnel. Sally is brought before Dr. Marlowe and he hypnotizes her after telling her he needs her. He takes her and introduces her to Mrs. Marlowe who is sitting motionless in a chair and he tells Sally, Mrs. Marlowe is dead, but he is working to bring her back. Dr. Marlowe then orders Sally to go into the basement and she screams. She is later brought before Dr. Marlowe and he has her sit in a chair. He places Mrs. Marlowe in the chair opposite Sally and Nicholas chants to Frambona while Dr. Marlowe says from mind to mind and from soul to body over and over again. As he repeats life to death, Sally falls back into her chair, while Mrs. Marlowe exhibits flickers of life, before falling back to death. Toby goes to check on the Zombies and lets Sally out of her cell and he pets her hair. He hears Dr. Marlowe and puts Sally back into her cell, but forgets to close the door and she escapes. As the Sheriff and Deputy are driving back to the station, they see Sally walking down the middle of the road and pick her up. They take her to the Benton home and tell them how they found her. As the Sheriff and Deputy are leaving, Dr. Marlowe shows up at Mrs. Benton's home and offers to examine Sally. While they are staring at Sally, Betty mentions to Ralph that she looks like a Zombie. Dr. Marlowe examines Sally and advises Mrs. Benton to let Sally rest and not to take her to a hospital. Later she leaves and returns to Dr. Marlowe's house. After Dr. Marlowe is shot and killed by the Sheriff, Sally wakes up and she leaves with Betty and Ralph.
