In the episode "Root of All Evil", Amanda Harrington was an ancient wealthy widow who was almost thrown into a cursed mulcher by one of her new gardeners who wanted to turn her wrinkled flesh into crisp cash.
In the episode "Repetitions", Mrs. Cromwell was murdered by her son, Walter (David Ferry), but her soul appeared in a cursed cameo locket and continuously called out to him, nagging at her son to take another life so that she could regain her mortality.
