Synopsis

LEGACY OF HATE Bruce Wayne is invited to the ancestral Waynemoor Castle, of the Waynes in England, where he meets several distant relatives and encounters a ghostly knight bent on centuries-old vengeance. Bruce is forced to intervene as Batman in order to stop the "ghost" and finds out that there is no ghost, but the butler, who discovered a past murder and became insane with the belief that he was the reincarnation of one of the castle's founders. Batman captures the insane man and clears the centuries-old murder mystery, but finds himself still baffled by the apparent supernatural circumstances surrounding Waynemoor Castle. THE HEAD-SPLITTLERS! When a recent socialite divorcee is mysteriously killed by something that literally crushed her head, Barbara Gordon decides to investigate. She soon becomes interested in a socialite wig maker named Vazly and soon goes to purchase a wig, little knowing that it was Vazly who was responsible, and that he implanted devices into the wigs that he made in order to extort money out of the rich.  Learning the truth, Barbara attacks Vazly and his assistant as Batgirl, however, before she can stop them, they put a wig over her head and set it to crush.
