Plot
In Winter River, Connecticut, Adam and Barbara Maitland are spending their vacation decorating their large country home that local real estate agent Jane Butterfield constantly pesters them to sell. As a hobby, Adam is building a scale model of the town in the attic. While the Maitlands are driving home from town, they swerve to avoid a stray dog and their car plunges off a bridge and into the river. Barbara and Adam arrive home, but are unable to recall how they got there. When attempting to leave the house, Adam finds himself on Saturn's moon, Titan, an otherworldly desert-like landscape populated by enormous sandworms. The encounter lasts mere seconds for him, but after Barbara rescues him, she tells him he was gone for two hours. After noticing they now lack reflections and discovering a Handbook for the Recently Deceased, the couple realizes that they drowned in the river and are ghosts.
