Synopsis: The main supernatural aspect of the story (aside from anthropomorphic animals) is the story of two traveling brothers. They stay at a lodge, where one is murdered. His ghost appears to his brother in a dream, telling him what has happened and where to find the body. This reveals the murderers or, as the phrase has passed down through the centuries, "Murder shall out".
