00:00:00You're cordially invited to the reading of Eleanor Winters' will.
00:00:05Come in before the storm swallows you whole.
00:00:08I guess we are all here for the same reason?
00:00:12Danger doesn't always come from outside, Miss Winters.
00:00:18She's dead and we're stuck here. I just want my share in to leave.
00:00:27I don't think it's a ghost.
00:00:29It's best to stay in your room at night.
00:00:36Okay. Definitely not creepy at all.
00:00:40Help!
00:00:42Who's there?
00:00:45You have been saying cryptic shit all this time. What do you know?
00:00:49Don't go!
00:00:50I will always be with you.
00:00:52This place, it's alive.
00:00:54You're cordially invited to the reading of Eleanor Winters' will.
00:01:12Attendance is required for consideration of inheritance.
00:01:16Frostwood Inn.
00:01:19Why would Eleanor choose me?
00:01:24A free trip to the middle of nowhere.
00:01:27Must be my lucky day.
00:01:28Frostwood Inn.
00:01:29Frostwood Inn invitation?
00:01:33Hmm.
00:01:35Interesting.
00:01:37Maybe I'll find some inspiration there.
00:01:40Oh, Aunt Eleanor.
00:01:41You never stop chasing ghosts.
00:01:42You're the first to arrive.
00:01:55Come in before the storm swallows you whole.
00:01:56What a charming little icebox.
00:01:57Miss Monroe.
00:01:58Just in time.
00:02:02Of course.
00:02:03She invited the mysterious bookworm.
00:02:04Um, nice to meet you, Miss...
00:02:05Nina.
00:02:06Call me Nina.
00:02:07Nina.
00:02:08Um, nice to meet you, Miss...
00:02:10Nina.
00:02:11Call me Nina.
00:02:13emmy!
00:02:17Hiya.
00:02:22Who are you?
00:02:37Did I just sign up for Arctic Expedition?
00:02:54I'm Alex, and you must be...
00:02:57Lyla, nice to meet you.
00:03:00I love your podcast, by the way.
00:03:03Thanks.
00:03:07I guess we are all here for the same reason.
00:03:11Unless you're here to critique the architecture.
00:03:14I'm Jules, by the way. Nice to meet you all.
00:03:28Welcome to Frostwood Inn.
00:03:30The will shall be read tomorrow.
00:03:32Settling upstairs, we have the male and female board.
00:03:36Sweet.
00:03:37I guess I got the whole wing by myself.
00:03:58It's best to stay in your room at night.
00:04:01This inn has quirks.
00:04:03Fantastic.
00:04:22Fantastic.
00:04:23Quarks.
00:04:24My foot.
00:04:25Miss Grayson?
00:04:53Is that you?
00:04:56Is that you?
00:05:14Okay.
00:05:16Definitely not creepy at all.
00:05:17Room's shift, shadows move.
00:05:33The inn hides its truth behind wheels.
00:05:35This place doesn't feel alive.
00:05:39This place doesn't feel alive.
00:05:42It feels...
00:05:43Watchful.
00:05:46Let's hope that morning brings us the answers.
00:05:49The inn.
00:05:50I don't know.
00:05:50The inn.
00:05:51I don't know.
00:05:53I don't know.
00:05:54I don't know.
00:05:54Winters leaves Frostwood Inn to the four of you.
00:05:58Provides you reside here together for three weeks.
00:06:04Three weeks in this old place with strangers?
00:06:07It's a small price to pay for an inn like this.
00:06:11Right, says the woman who probably brought a Wi-Fi router.
00:06:17And if you live before them, you shall forfeit the inheritance.
00:06:27Three weeks isn't that long.
00:06:29If we can work together, we could change our lives.
00:06:33Change our lives how?
00:06:35Like, what's the catch?
00:06:38The catch is, we're here because Eleanor wanted to watch us scorn.
00:06:43I'm sure this is some reality TV show or prank or something.
00:06:47Maybe.
00:06:48But why us?
00:06:50It all has to be for a reason.
00:06:54Maybe she wanted us to find something?
00:06:59The inn has secrets, some of which are better left undisturbed.
00:07:05What was Eleanor hiding?
00:07:27Did you say something?
00:07:29Um, no.
00:07:31No, nothing.
00:07:31Um, let's go downstairs.
00:07:35Eleanor, use the fireplace as warm.
00:07:37Sure.
00:07:38Coming in now?
00:07:40Uh, you guys go ahead.
00:07:41I'll come by later.
00:07:45Okay.
00:07:51Let's vault this place up.
00:07:52You don't just leave it into a stranger's, unless there's something you want them to find.
00:08:08What do we have here?
00:08:22The veil binds us all.
00:08:32Time twists and the voices echo, where the light cannot reach.
00:08:38This is Eleanor's.
00:08:40It has to be.
00:08:41But what does any of it mean?
00:08:43We don't need to like each other, we just need to survive for three weeks.
00:09:08Survive?
00:09:09What do you mean survive?
00:09:11Make it sound like we're in danger.
00:09:13She's not wrong.
00:09:15There is something off about this place.
00:09:17The way the air feels.
00:09:19Don't pretend like you haven't noticed.
00:09:22People did disappear here sometimes in the past.
00:09:26Come on, Alex.
00:09:27Don't let the atmosphere get to you.
00:09:30Oh, maybe.
00:09:32Or maybe we should be paying attention to the things that feels weird before it's too late.
00:09:38Danger doesn't always come from outside, Miss Winters.
00:09:46Are you saying the danger's inside?
00:09:49What kind of games are you playing here, Mrs. Grayson?
00:09:52Games have rules, Miss Carter.
00:09:56This house does not.
00:09:57The walls speak if you listen.
00:10:08Truth lies in silence.
00:10:15Let's face it.
00:10:16Eleanor chose us for a reason.
00:10:19What's everyone hiding?
00:10:21Why does it matter?
00:10:22She's dead and we're stuck here.
00:10:24I just want my share and to leave.
00:10:25Well, actually, I found something.
00:10:29And there is written something about listening to the walls.
00:10:33So maybe we can see if there is something more that we can realize.
00:10:39You think she left clues for us?
00:10:41Why?
00:10:42The inn doesn't take kindly to curiosity.
00:10:51Remember, it killed the cat.
00:10:59Ah!
00:11:00What's the saying?
00:11:18Ah!
00:11:26I don't know.
00:11:56I don't know.
00:12:26You shouldn't be here.
00:12:30I... I just got lost exploring the place.
00:12:42Jules?
00:12:43No.
00:12:44You seem jittery.
00:12:46Have you found anything interesting?
00:12:48Jittery?
00:12:49Me?
00:12:50No.
00:12:51You must be mistaken.
00:12:53I'm just...
00:12:54adjusting to the cult, I guess.
00:12:57Or maybe it's Eleanor's idea of crazy social experiment.
00:13:02Or maybe she just wanted us to drive each other crazy.
00:13:06I'm just...
00:13:08I'm just...
00:13:09I'm just...
00:13:11I'm just...
00:13:11I don't know.
00:13:41Where is that room?
00:13:47I'm sure it was that way.
00:13:58Do you hear sounds at night, like whispers?
00:14:03Maybe.
00:14:04Why?
00:14:06Because I think the inn is trying to tell us something.
00:14:11Some whispers are best ignored.
00:14:18They are but figments of your imagination.
00:14:26I'm starting to not like her.
00:14:28You and me?
00:14:30Both.
00:14:31I'm sure I wasn't dreaming.
00:14:44I trotted the whole place and I still can't find the painting.
00:14:48Good afternoon.
00:14:49Can I help you with something?
00:14:50I'm looking for a room with a painting.
00:14:55A large painting.
00:14:57I tried looking for it but I can't seem to find it.
00:15:02This inn tends to shift about.
00:15:05It only lets you see what it wants you to see.
00:15:09What do you mean?
00:15:10And like it switches space?
00:15:14Maybe.
00:15:26Oh!
00:15:27Here comes the loner.
00:15:29Haven't seen you all day.
00:15:30What have you been up to?
00:15:31You look worn out.
00:15:32You sleep much?
00:15:33It must be the weather.
00:16:03Who's there?
00:16:08Was this place always like this?
00:16:11Strange.
00:16:12Strange.
00:16:33Strange.
00:16:34Strange.
00:16:35Strange.
00:16:36Strange.
00:16:37Strange.
00:16:38Strange.
00:16:39Strange.
00:16:40Strange.
00:16:41Strange.
00:16:42Strange.
00:16:43Strange.
00:16:44Strange.
00:16:45Strange.
00:16:46Strange.
00:16:47Strange.
00:16:48Strange.
00:16:49Strange.
00:16:50Strange.
00:16:51Strange.
00:16:52Strange.
00:16:53Strange.
00:16:54Strange.
00:16:55Strange.
00:16:56Strange.
00:16:57Strange.
00:16:58Strange.
00:16:59Strange.
00:17:00Strange.
00:17:01Strange.
00:17:02Strange.
00:17:03Good morning.
00:17:13You're up early.
00:17:16I couldn't sleep much last night.
00:17:19Yeah, me neither.
00:17:22I don't know how you feel, but this place, it gives me creeps.
00:17:27If I could, I would have left long ago.
00:17:30Say no more.
00:17:31I have the same feeling.
00:17:33This house is so strange.
00:17:34It's giving me creeps.
00:17:36And actually, Eleanor was too much loony towards the end.
00:17:42Check this out.
00:17:48Can you keep secrets?
00:17:52So last night, I stumbled upon this random room.
00:17:57It was like much bigger than my room.
00:17:58But in the room, there was a huge prostitute of Eleanor.
00:18:06And in that room, there was a huge trunk.
00:18:10And I think maybe there's some of Eleanor's stuff inside.
00:18:14Do you want to check it out with me?
00:18:16Sorry to disturb you, lovebirds.
00:18:25What's for breakfast?
00:18:28Damn the storm.
00:18:29Killing all the lights just like that.
00:18:32I wonder how long this blackout will last.
00:18:35What's wrong?
00:18:36Have you noticed anything strange about this inn?
00:18:42I mean, besides all the usual creepy things that are happening.
00:18:47Um, you'll have to be a bit more specific.
00:18:49This place is practically a shrine to strange.
00:18:54Eleanor's room.
00:18:56I think it's moving.
00:18:58Eleanor's room?
00:19:00This inn doesn't have a master's bedroom?
00:19:02I used to come up here for holidays, and I've never heard of a master's bedroom.
00:19:06It does.
00:19:07I found it earlier, and when I went back, it was gone.
00:19:11Like, completely.
00:19:13The house, the room, doesn't want to be found.
00:19:18It moves?
00:19:19Like, shifts around the house?
00:19:22That's ridiculous.
00:19:23Where exactly did you find this room?
00:19:25Down the halfway, at the end.
00:19:27This inn always had a left and right wings upstairs, but there is no middle wing.
00:19:37What?
00:19:38May I?
00:19:42Rooms that don't stay in place.
00:19:44Scary sounds that echo the spaces.
00:19:47The house rearranges itself to guard its secrets.
00:19:50Exactly.
00:19:52Eleanor's bedroom isn't just a bedroom.
00:19:55It's hiding something.
00:19:57And I'm sure it's tied up to the heart of all those creepy things that are happening.
00:20:12I found this there.
00:20:17Let's see what else we can find.
00:20:18Are you ready?
00:20:25Yes.
00:20:26Where's the room?
00:20:28It's there around the hallway.
00:20:30Something about it feels off.
00:20:33Off?
00:20:34Like, hunt it off?
00:20:36Or we're losing it off?
00:20:39I don't know.
00:20:40Come on.
00:20:43Come on.
00:20:50Well, great.
00:20:51Let's poke around in some creepy room.
00:20:54With the ominous trunk.
00:20:56That's such a good idea.
00:20:58If there's anything, any answer, that's what's happening in here.
00:21:03It has to be in that room.
00:21:04Are you in?
00:21:07I'm in.
00:21:08Let's go before I change my mind.
00:21:16There it is.
00:21:18The room.
00:21:21Okay.
00:21:21After you, brave explorer.
00:21:23This portrait is really creepy, right?
00:21:50Why does it feel she's watching us?
00:21:55Maybe she is.
00:22:00Do you feel that?
00:22:03The temperature drop?
00:22:05Yeah.
00:22:06Something's wrong.
00:22:08Tell me that's not moving.
00:22:12It wasn't like that before.
00:22:15Should we try opening it?
00:22:20We've come this far.
00:22:23Okay.
00:22:40Alex, it's not!
00:22:41It's not safe here!
00:22:42Go!
00:22:43Okay.
00:22:51Next time, remind me not to volunteer for creepy room day.
00:22:55That trunk.
00:22:56It's hiding something.
00:22:58We're going to have to go back there.
00:23:05The space shifts.
00:23:07What was a hallway is now a staircase.
00:23:09What was my room yesterday is a parlor today.
00:23:11But the whispers lead the way.
00:23:17This has to be it.
00:23:18At the nurse room.
00:23:21If the space shifts, maybe we can predict where it goes next.
00:23:25But how do we track something that doesn't stay still?
00:23:28The entry says follow the whispers.
00:23:31Maybe that's the clue.
00:23:32There should be somewhere around here.
00:23:43Maybe you...
00:23:44Wait, do you hear that?
00:23:45The whispers, just like the guestbook said.
00:23:49Jules?
00:23:49Nina?
00:23:50What are you doing here?
00:23:52What are you doing here?
00:23:53Well, I guess we're all in this together now.
00:24:00Jules?
00:24:17Jules?
00:24:18The whispers, they were louder this time, like they wanted us to hear them.
00:24:46The cycle must end. What does that even mean? And why do we keep hearing it?
00:24:53Everything is tied up to the trunk. The box, the diary, everything is Eleanor's room.
00:24:59So the answers must be there. We just need to figure out how to open this box.
00:25:03And risk waking up whatever that's inside this box? We're already knowing too much.
00:25:08The house doesn't want us to know this much.
00:25:11Look at the symbols. They match the diagrams from the dialogue. This box needs a key to open.
00:25:18A key? Jules, the key! The key you found earlier!
00:25:22This is odd. What's...
00:25:29Look at these photographs!
00:25:35There must be a mistake.
00:25:42No. It's authentic alright.
00:25:45Guys, you're not gonna believe this.
00:25:50Authorities are baffled as four individuals mysteriously disappeared from Frostwood Inn.
00:25:57Curses were last seen entering the primes.
00:26:00But no signs of struggle or departure has been found. Local whispers of the inn's dark reputation. Fueling fears of an unexplainable curse.
00:26:07This was from 50 years ago.
00:26:09Well, I'll be damned. The date matches the disappearance, but that doesn't explain anything.
00:26:16Do you think that's why Eleanor brought us here together?
00:26:21Well, I'll be damned. The date matches the disappearance, but that doesn't explain anything.
00:26:26Do you think that's why Eleanor brought us here together?
00:26:39We're barely getting the surface crash, and I'm supposed to believe there's some grand mystery here?
00:26:44There is a mystery, Nina. Eleanor didn't just pick up us by accident. The picture says it all.
00:26:50I mean, we're not just some random strangers. It proves...
00:26:54It proves nothing! 50 years ago, I wasn't even born! And somehow I ended up in a photograph with my aunt?
00:27:00We can't deny the photograph, Nina. We're all so confused. But I agree with Laila. We are not chosen at random.
00:27:09We all have our own role to play. And it's our duty to find out which ones.
00:27:15Time isn't the straight line we thought it was.
00:27:18I mean, Eleanor somehow chose us to be here at this moment. Eleanor never said she knew us before we were born.
00:27:29This is all confusing. But at least we found something. Why don't we just start here?
00:27:41My, my. The past doesn't like to be disturbed.
00:27:45Enough with this cryptic nonsense. What does this mean?
00:27:48It means you've walked into a time trap.
00:27:54Guys, this is incredible. They're not just journal entries. They're more like research. Like she was piecing the secrets of the house together.
00:28:04Can anyone make sense of this? I'm hitting the wall with these symbols and diagrams. They're not exactly on floor.
00:28:13The symbols. They're references to alchemy and ancient ceiling. Rituals. And look here. This diagram matches the layout of the inn.
00:28:26Why did she write all this and left it behind?
00:28:30Maybe she wanted somebody to find this. Somebody who could end what she started.
00:28:36The veil must hold or the shadows will consume. The heart of the house is key bound by time and intent.
00:28:45The heart of the house. She means the source of all of this. The thing we need to destroy.
00:28:52The symbol is repeated everywhere. It has to mean something. Maybe it's the anchor of the veil.
00:28:59The anchor of the veil. This man? He's in the locket we found earlier. Who is he?
00:29:11The man Eleanor feared, I think. Or the man who betrayed her. Betrayal? But for me, Eleanor didn't seem someone who would trust anyone that much.
00:29:22What if she did trust him? Maybe that's why we're here.
00:29:27Wait. He will come back for what I took. His revenge is inevitable.
00:29:37He was terrified. We're not just dealing with an inheritance. This is personal.
00:29:45This man. He's why we're here. Eleanor thought someone would return.
00:29:50The journal. It mentioned betrayal. What if the man is still watching us?
00:29:56What's that?
00:29:58Sir, if this turns into a ghost story, I'm not staying here.
00:30:02I don't think it's a ghost.
00:30:04You've already awakened what was meant to stay buried.
00:30:08These letters, they are signed by J.
00:30:30The man in the photo. These letters. Of J's. He wasn't just angry. He was planning something.
00:30:46Why would she keep these hidden? Was she scared he'd come back?
00:30:50Maybe she was. The man. Jay. Maybe he's the one who is watching us.
00:30:56These are not just random thoughts written in the journal. It's warnings.
00:31:02Warnings for what?
00:31:04The journal mentioned betrayal. She warned about the inn itself. About someone returning to take something she had taken. A betrayal. Maybe he's the one who betrayed her.
00:31:20Listen to this one.
00:31:22The light will reveal the truth, but whispers in the dark will always remain.
00:31:28What was that?
00:31:34Okay, can we for one moment not die of a heart attack while we're trying to solve this?
00:31:38You found the truth. But now you've crossed the line. The past won't forgive.
00:31:54Why are we here? It doesn't feel random.
00:31:58Maybe it were the loose ends that Eleanor wanted to tie up. Or whoever that J guy is.
00:32:04This is just like Eleanor. She likes toying with people. This could be nothing.
00:32:08What if it's not? What if she was trying to protect us?
00:32:16Perhaps Eleanor was trying to protect herself. But you've already disturbed that which should remain undisturbed.
00:32:24What does that mean?
00:32:26It means you've brought the past closer than you think.
00:32:30He watches from the whale. The one who betrayed me seeks to undo what I've built.
00:32:36Who's he? What's his name? It cannot be just J.
00:32:40Eleanor wouldn't leave these hints to us if it was that simple.
00:32:45She probably wants us to find him. Or what he has left for us.
00:32:50And we're all just blindly playing along? For all we know this J could still be around.
00:32:56Then why all these warnings? She must have been terrified.
00:33:02If Eleanor wants us to find something, it's not just her words. It's somewhere over here.
00:33:12Is it just me or did Eleanor keep all her life hidden in puzzles?
00:33:20That's probably cheaper than a therapy.
00:33:22What was their connection?
00:33:24He was her greatest love. And her greatest disappointment.
00:33:30Oh, so you knew him. Then why don't you try to mention it even once?
00:33:38Some stories are better left untold.
00:33:42But Eleanor didn't leave you that choice, did she?
00:33:46I gave him my trust, my heart, and he took everything. But I will ensure he never gets what he truly wants.
00:33:56What did he want? The inn? Her fortune?
00:34:01Or her silence. Open it already.
00:34:04Wait, what if it's another warning? Eleanor didn't just give us these clues for fun, right?
00:34:11Well, we've already ignored the other ones. Let's see how bad this can get.
00:34:16To the one I rung, I knew my betrayal would lead us both here. The truth lies where the heart was broken.
00:34:30That's it? Another cryptic line? Typical Eleanor.
00:34:35That's not just it. She's committing guilt.
00:34:38Where the heart remembers?
00:34:43It's a clue. Another scavenger game? Great!
00:34:50So what? She cheated someone out of money? Broke their heart? Why drag us into it?
00:34:57Because we're connected. She said the truth lies where the heart was broken. It should mean something.
00:35:03Yeah, let's all take turns and we guess who's next to get haunted.
00:35:12You found what Eleanor feared most. Be careful where you look next.
00:35:18Why? What's left to find?
00:35:21The truth. And the one she betrayed.
00:35:25The truth lies beneath the veil of memory.
00:35:30Who's there?
00:35:32Who's there?
00:35:34Who was that?
00:35:48To understand the past, you must face the future. Look to where memory fades and you will see one.
00:36:10Where memory fades.
00:36:13Oh!
00:36:15Alex, what's wrong? You look like you've seen a ghost.
00:36:19Not a ghost. Just a message.
00:36:22This is more than just Eleanor's riddles. Where memories fade? This could be obvious. We're looking for something hidden.
00:36:37I know, but where?
00:36:40This, they're from Eleanor's younger age. But there is something off about these pictures.
00:36:51That's odd. Why is the guy's face hidden?
00:36:55There is more. So, it's addressed to Eleanor, but it's signed J.
00:37:01I promised I'd return for what you stole from me. You can run, but you can't hide. The truth will find you. J.
00:37:12So, J is the one Eleanor betrayed. But then why is he threatening us now?
00:37:19You found the door to the past. But should it be unlocked? Some doors are better left closed.
00:37:33You have been saying cryptic shit all this time. What do you know, Mrs. Grayson?
00:37:38The truth is more dangerous than you think. You better be careful what you awaken.
00:37:45This, this feels wrong.
00:37:58Guys, I've seen this symbol. In her diaries, and it's a warning. It means we need to leave.
00:38:07We're not leaving. Not until we find what we want.
00:38:15Someone's coming. Quickly, hide!
00:38:18What's this? Why were you hidden here?
00:38:48Okay, definitely not creepy at all.
00:39:03Shhh, stay quiet. Whoever it is, we don't want them to know, Marie.
00:39:18You're not ready for this. None of you are.
00:39:31Too long I have waited for this.
00:39:34What was that? What does she know? It seemed like she was talking to someone, but who? There was nobody before we entered the room.
00:39:53She's definitely hiding something. I don't know what, but it's more than just a housekeeper's secrets.
00:39:59Any of you feel like you're being watched?
00:40:02Let's get back to her rooms. We'll discuss this in the morning. Remember to lock your rooms.
00:40:09That was really dangerous. We all stopped, huh?
00:40:12Oh, Jules! How good for you to join us. Where were you last night?
00:40:17Why?
00:40:18Okay, enough. We've been here long enough. We're all on edge, Nina.
00:40:23This place is trying to divide us. How about we just get back on track and we can figure out what's in that drawer.
00:40:32Here. I found this in the female boarding room. Thought it might help us to unlock something we're missing.
00:40:42Guess we'll find out soon enough. Wait. What if Eleonore didn't want us to find out?
00:41:12The truth will be your undoing. The past cannot be erased, nor can it be undone. Beware the one who waits.
00:41:35Who's the one who waits?
00:41:37Who's the one who waits?
00:41:38Who's the one who waits?
00:41:42We shouldn't have done this.
00:41:54We're going to uncover everything. After this, there is no turning back.
00:42:00Look at that. These cheap batteries.
00:42:03What is this? Why is it so cold?
00:42:06Something is wrong. We shouldn't be here.
00:42:09Shut up. With you, nothing is ever right. The sooner so this mystery, the better.
00:42:14Guys, this must be Eleonore's private journal.
00:42:18Look at those notes.
00:42:20Look! It's another one of hers. Eleonore's handwriting.
00:42:23I knew the veil would break one day. He waits for what I took. And he won't stop until it's his again.
00:42:31Who's he? And what's the veil?
00:42:34Fantastic. So we've hit the ghost jackpot now?
00:42:40Some truths are better left buried.
00:42:43Heavens! Would it kill you to announce yourself once in a while?
00:42:46Why should it be hidden? What was Eleonore so scared of?
00:42:49You are not ready for the truth.
00:43:01Great. More puzzles. Does Eleonore think we're detectives or something?
00:43:06Well, she did invite us here to clean up her mess.
00:43:09To those who follow, beware what you're uncovered. The past holds more than memories. It holds him.
00:43:16Him. It's Eleonore. And him again.
00:43:23This guy. Jay. Whoever he is, he must be the key to all of this.
00:43:34Who is he? And why did Eleonore keep this hidden?
00:43:37Because she knew what he was capable of. She knew he would not stop.
00:43:43Why not tell us? Why leave us all the breadcrumbs?
00:43:47Because she knew you were the only ones who could stop him.
00:43:51You know what? It's late and I'm tired. I'm fucking tired.
00:43:56I don't know about you guys, but I'm going to go back and take a warm bath to wash out all the soreness and the dust.
00:44:04Good night.
00:44:05Good night.
00:44:08Um, excuse me. Uh, good night.
00:44:17The veil isn't just a metaphor. It's the barrier that keeps him out.
00:44:22Yes!
00:44:32Help! Who's there!?
00:44:34No one way!
00:44:37No one way!
00:44:39what happened are you okay it talked to me it said we've gone too far
00:44:53he lives between what was and what is the veil is his prison but he's breaking free
00:45:03what is it supposed to mean it means he's waking up Eleanor used to keep him locked away but you're
00:45:14breaking down these walls who was trying down the walls
00:45:19mrs. Grayson I think you owe us answers at this point
00:45:27what do you wish to know if this guy is real why hasn't he shown himself
00:45:33he doesn't exist in this plane but I assure you he's as real as you and me
00:45:42ah you mentioned someone is waking him up who and how the four of you are waking him
00:45:50up he feeds on fear the more you dig the more strong he becomes
00:46:01then where leave us all these clues where lead us to him
00:46:07Eleanor didn't want you to free him she wanted you to stop him
00:46:14great no pressure
00:46:17there's nothing concrete there it's all cryptic warnings or maybe that's all Eleanor had
00:46:47warnings here it is this is the heart of the house this is where we can find him or stop him
00:46:57okay this is insane we're walking straight into his trap do you have a better idea because reading these letters or the notes is not great either
00:47:04if Eleanor marked this as the heart it means she meant for us to go or where she was trying to warn us not to go
00:47:11can we stop it with the dramatics already
00:47:16you found it Eleanor's final clue you mean the creepy heart room you mean the creepy heart room care to explain what's waiting for us there this house was built around it it's one of the creepy heart room
00:47:23it's where he resides Eleanor trapped him there but the veil is breaking
00:47:30this house was built around it it's where he resides Eleanor trapped him there but the veil is breaking
00:47:38wonderful so yeah we're just gonna walk in and fix her mistakes right Eleanor chose you for a reason you're all connected to him somehow how are we connected?
00:47:45you mean the creepy heart room you mean the creepy heart room care to explain what's waiting for us there?
00:47:50this house was built around it it's where he resides Eleanor trapped him there but the veil is breaking
00:47:56he's just gonna walk in and fix her mistakes right?
00:47:59Eleanor chose you for a reason you're all connected to him somehow how are we connected?
00:48:08think of how you know Eleanor and then you'll be able to figure out what he wants and why he's interested in the four of you
00:48:19you seem drawn to this one it's called transition it's more than a painting it's the story an incomplete one you think so?
00:48:44most people just see shadows most people are not paying attention but you are that what's make your work so different
00:48:57do I know you you seem familiar perhaps in another time well congratulations on your opening I'll keep an eye on your work
00:49:12art doesn't just reflect the soul it reveals the unseen your studio deserves to stand the test of time consider this my contribution
00:49:33so Mrs. Jules your studio has gotten a lot of attention since its opening tell me what inspired this exhibit?
00:49:46honestly I don't think I fully understand it myself these pieces they just come to me like they are meant to be created
00:49:58rumor has it that this was impossible without an anonymous contributor
00:50:03any idea of who they are?
00:50:05fits me whoever they are they believed in myself more than I believed in myself
00:50:12I wonder if they see the same story in the shadows
00:50:15sorry what was that?
00:50:17no nothing I was just thinking out loud
00:50:20who are you really Elioner?
00:50:30that's a charming place
00:50:40it has an air of curiosity about it
00:50:43that's what I aim for
00:50:45welcome to the curious bookworm
00:50:47can I help you find anything?
00:50:49well I'm actually here to help you
00:50:52I hear you are quite an investigator of various strange phenomena
00:50:57what is this?
00:50:59that's a family estate
00:51:01has a reputation about it
00:51:04I think you'll find it interesting
00:51:06that's incredible but
00:51:10and I leave you for a few minutes and you wander off like that
00:51:14sorry to bother you
00:51:15we're leaving
00:51:17I trust you'll make a good use of it
00:51:19just be careful and where your curiosity leaves you
00:51:26today we are diving into the enigmatic history of Frostbuddin
00:51:31known for its hunting atmosphere and unexplained events
00:51:35this estate has been the subject for local legends for decades
00:51:44hey do you have a minute?
00:51:46sure what's in your mind?
00:51:48I wanted to apologize to you for the other day
00:51:51my aunt can be not so okay so to speak
00:51:54she may have spoken things to seem odd to you
00:51:56but she's not a bad person she's just
00:51:58you don't believe in her don't you?
00:52:00I don't
00:52:02but Frostbuddin has had strange happenings
00:52:06but they can all be explained rationally that's all
00:52:09you've been running your whole life Nina
00:52:30you can't just keep running
00:52:32I'm not running
00:52:34I'm just not interested in chasing shadows
00:52:37these are not shadows
00:52:39this is our family legacy
00:52:41an old creepy inn?
00:52:45sounds more like a burden not a legacy
00:52:48you have no idea what Frostbuddin is holding
00:52:52this is not just an inn
00:52:54this is about who we are
00:52:57and one day you will understand
00:52:59if it's so important to you
00:53:01why don't you deal with it yourself?
00:53:03why drag me into it?
00:53:05because I won't always be here
00:53:07what do you want me to do?
00:53:09for now just listen
00:53:11and when the time comes
00:53:13you will know what to do
00:53:15you should know better than to wander off aunt
00:53:20library had nothing much about Frostbuddin
00:53:23well sometimes you need to go elsewhere
00:53:25to find out the truth
00:53:26you know you have to be more curious
00:53:29because that's how we find out who we are
00:53:32or how we waste time chasing ghosts
00:53:34legends of Frostbuddin speak of a mysterious veil
00:53:45that protects its secrets
00:53:46but also finds those who inherit its legacy
00:53:49is it a place of power
00:53:51or a curse waiting to claim its next victim?
00:53:54hey
00:54:02I've been listening to your podcast
00:54:04wow
00:54:05I'm flattered
00:54:06don't tell me I've converted you into a believer
00:54:09honestly
00:54:10I thought it was just stories
00:54:12but I'm not so sure
00:54:14my aunt Eleanor
00:54:16she's obsessed with Frostbuddin
00:54:18yeah
00:54:19Eleanor mentioned you
00:54:21she thinks that you might be a part of something
00:54:23bigger
00:54:24she's good at being cryptic
00:54:26do you think there's anything real behind all this?
00:54:29I think it's worth looking to it
00:54:31I mean if she's right
00:54:33you might be a key to understanding it
00:54:36I'm not so sure I want to understand this
00:54:53the Frostbuddin is more than just an old building
00:55:00it's a mystery
00:55:02woven into the fabric of our town
00:55:04a place where stories seem to go to hide
00:55:07and people sometimes vanish altogether
00:55:10some call it cursed
00:55:13others a masterpiece of misfortune
00:55:15but the question remains
00:55:17what is Frostbud really hiding?
00:55:30yeah?
00:55:31what the hell is this Alex?
00:55:33I told you to stick to the mayoral campaign
00:55:36this is bigger than politics Marcus
00:55:38four people disappeared near that end 50 years ago
00:55:42there was not a trace
00:55:43and nobody was connecting the dots
00:55:45until now
00:55:46there are no dots to connect
00:55:48you are pushing a ghost story
00:55:50we are not running this
00:55:51the public deserves to know the truth
00:56:00the truth about Frostbud
00:56:02may never fully be uncovered
00:56:04but for those brave or foolish
00:56:06enough to try
00:56:07it's a path you can walk back from
00:56:11looks like
00:56:12I'm going back to the story
00:56:18gee
00:56:19where are you Mr. J?
00:56:24the faint whisper of J
00:56:26the one who holds the key to all of this
00:56:28I fear I have failed him
00:56:30but he will come when it is time
00:56:32I only hope it is not too late
00:56:36wait
00:56:37she said that he would come
00:56:40whenever is the time
00:56:42what if he's not just someone from her past
00:56:44what if he's been here all along
00:56:47or
00:56:49what if
00:56:50he's the one that we have been interacting
00:56:54whole time
00:56:55but
00:56:56we didn't even realize
00:56:59I see you're trying to find the identity of J
00:57:04why don't you tell us more about him
00:57:06was he an enemy of a friend?
00:57:08Eleanor trusted J
00:57:10because she knew him better than anyone else
00:57:12but he was also the reason why she was trapped here
00:57:16why?
00:57:17what's his connection to all of this?
00:57:21J wasn't a stranger
00:57:22he was
00:57:24or is
00:57:25one of you
00:57:29what do you mean one of us?
00:57:31he vanished
00:57:32he vanished
00:57:33or rather part of him vanished
00:57:3550 years ago
00:57:38one of us?
00:57:40so he's been here all along?
00:57:43J was your connection to the veil
00:57:46but he became part of the shadow
00:57:49he was trapped in the earthreal plane
00:57:52with Eleanor
00:57:53his identity was lost
00:57:56his memory wiped
00:57:58until all of you
00:58:00returned
00:58:02so
00:58:03J has been here
00:58:05all the time?
00:58:07yes
00:58:09J is the missing piece
00:58:11the key to the cycle
00:58:13he was tied to the veil
00:58:16just like you all were
00:58:19he wasn't fortunate enough
00:58:22to come out
00:58:24whole
00:58:26like you back then
00:58:28whole?
00:58:30what do you mean whole?
00:58:34J was none other than James
00:58:36your brother Nina
00:58:41James?
00:58:43my brother?
00:58:45but he's been in a wheelchair
00:58:46for as long as I can remember
00:58:49the last time you were together
00:58:51he got lost in the veil
00:58:53and he sacrificed part of himself
00:58:55so that you could all get out
00:58:58Eleanor went back
00:59:00to try to get the piece
00:59:02that he had left behind
00:59:04so that he could be whole again
00:59:07but she discovered the shadow merged with him
00:59:11in essence
00:59:14he became that
00:59:17which you were trying to escape
00:59:21this map was Eleanor's last attempt to escape the veil
00:59:28she believes the end spaces shift
00:59:31mirroring their counterparts in the veil
00:59:34the four
00:59:36for instance
00:59:37becomes a heart
00:59:39heart
00:59:41how about other rooms?
00:59:43like boarding rooms
00:59:45they become manifestations of the veil's power
00:59:49each one feeding evil
00:59:51so how do we get in?
00:59:54are we supposed to just walk into some other dimension?
00:59:57this will help you cross over
01:00:01this is how Eleanor went in
01:00:03and how you will follow her
01:00:05so what if we can't come back?
01:00:08then the veil will claim you
01:00:10then let's do this
01:00:12we've come too far to back out now
01:00:13it's too far to back out now
01:00:19worlds align and worlds collide
01:00:22worlds arrive and worlds collide
01:00:25let them all come inside
01:00:31this... this doesn't feel right
01:00:34it's too late to back out now
01:00:36it's too late to back out now
01:00:43step through
01:00:45together
01:00:59don't let us get lost
01:01:01you are stronger than the evil
01:01:03trust each other
01:01:06this... this is the veil?
01:01:19it looks...
01:01:21warped
01:01:23it's not just warped
01:01:25it's wrong
01:01:27look at the walls, they're breathing
01:01:29look at this place
01:01:31stick together
01:01:33we don't know what's real here
01:01:35you've come back
01:01:37the cycle begins on your own
01:01:39look at this place
01:01:41it's alive
01:01:43alive and watching us
01:01:45careful
01:01:47please don't go anywhere
01:01:49and don't go separated
01:01:51because if this place shifts
01:01:53we can lose each other
01:01:55right, we stick together
01:01:57no matter what
01:01:58it's a marking
01:02:00Elinor must have left it behind
01:02:02what does it mean?
01:02:03is it part of the map?
01:02:05it's like a sigil
01:02:06she probably tried to contain something here or
01:02:07come back here
01:02:08or maybe it's protecting us
01:02:09or maybe it's protecting us
01:02:10or maybe it's protecting something else
01:02:12could you please see if there is anything under it?
01:02:15wait
01:02:17it's a marking
01:02:19it's a marking
01:02:20Elinor must have left it behind
01:02:22what does it mean?
01:02:23is it part of the map?
01:02:25it's like a sigil
01:02:27she probably tried to contain something here or
01:02:29come back here
01:02:30maybe
01:02:31it's protecting us
01:02:33or maybe it's protecting something else
01:02:36could you please see if there is anything under it?
01:02:40wait
01:02:42what is that?
01:02:44it's like a compass
01:02:47it's pointing somewhere
01:02:49looks like
01:02:50that's where we're going to
01:02:52wait
01:02:53what if it's leading us into a trap?
01:02:55doesn't matter
01:02:56if we want to find Elinor
01:02:58we're gonna take the risk
01:02:59let's go before this place starts changing
01:03:16this place feels worse than the foyer
01:03:18like it's breathing
01:03:20the compass brought us here
01:03:22so there has to be something we can find
01:03:24these markings
01:03:26it's similar to those in Elinor's diary
01:03:29in her journal she said
01:03:31the veil imprints itself on the space it consumes
01:03:35great
01:03:36so are we walking in that whale's stomach?
01:03:39stay close!
01:03:41don't let the voice mess your mind
01:03:43the compass
01:03:45the compass
01:03:46it's pointing there
01:03:47it means that evil doesn't want us near it
01:03:49to hell with that
01:03:50let's find out what's inside
01:03:53flashlights!
01:03:54use your lights
01:03:55it keeps the darkness away
01:03:58got it!
01:04:00no!
01:04:02rust!
01:04:03rust!
01:04:04rust!
01:04:05rust!
01:04:06it's clear!
01:04:08let's see what we're supposed to find in this room
01:04:24whatever we need must be in that wall
01:04:27do you really think with it moving like this we'll just easily give up?
01:04:32wait
01:04:34there is something written about this wall in this diary
01:04:39speak softly your desires and tap twice to reveal that which is hidden
01:04:46right as if that'll work
01:04:49you can go far without some fight little bird
01:04:53James?
01:04:55i am
01:04:57but i am not
01:04:59yes
01:05:00yes
01:05:01that was what they used to call me
01:05:04oh god james is that you?
01:05:07i am here
01:05:09there everywhere
01:05:11but it's not important
01:05:12you have to end
01:05:13and free us
01:05:18oh my
01:05:19go on
01:05:20i will hold them for as long as i can
01:05:24quickly
01:05:25we are here
01:05:26so
01:05:27we have the fragments now
01:05:41what now?
01:05:42how do we use this to end the veil?
01:05:44well elnor said that fragments must be combined at the heart of the veil
01:05:49that's this room
01:05:50but it requires
01:05:51what?
01:05:52it requires what?
01:05:53it requires a strong bond
01:05:55strong connection between the people who are involved
01:05:59because the veil fits on division and fear
01:06:03so we have to connect
01:06:04like we have to have connection
01:06:06we have to have trust
01:06:09and focus
01:06:10great
01:06:11trust and focus
01:06:13no pressure
01:06:15can't do battle on an empty stomach and no rest
01:06:19well amen to that
01:06:22fighting and running away from the devils
01:06:24is surely a hungry war
01:06:26jules what are you thinking?
01:06:28um
01:06:30you said
01:06:31jay james
01:06:33he lost a part of himself
01:06:35in the veil
01:06:36and then elianer
01:06:37went there by herself to climb it back
01:06:39and got stuck there
01:06:40stuck there
01:06:41jules what are you getting at?
01:06:44perhaps there is a way how we can save them both
01:06:47there was just one room
01:06:49that wasn't available
01:06:51and yet
01:06:52it got shifted back to our reality
01:06:55elianer's room
01:06:57yes
01:06:58and what about it?
01:07:00let's go back to the veil
01:07:01i think i know where we can find elianer
01:07:03and we can save your brother
01:07:06first
01:07:07you all have to take some rest
01:07:09and freshen up
01:07:10the rescue can wait
01:07:12they are not going anywhere
01:07:17james
01:07:18is tied to the veil
01:07:20his body remains here
01:07:22but part of him has merged with evil
01:07:25if you want to bring him back you'll have to sever that connection
01:07:29which means going back
01:07:31how do you even find him in that place?
01:07:34the veil shifts
01:07:36but its heart remains constant
01:07:39you'll find james there
01:07:44this will guide you to him
01:07:47but be warned
01:07:49the veil will fight harder this time
01:07:52because it knows you're coming to undo its grip
01:07:55i'm not afraid
01:07:56i'm getting my brother back
01:08:00together
01:08:03i'm not afraid
01:08:07elianer wrote about james
01:08:09she said part of him was left behind when the evil first took him
01:08:13his memories
01:08:14his essence
01:08:16it's still there
01:08:18if he's connected to the veil
01:08:21then shouldn't destroying it free him?
01:08:24not if the evil bound him willingly
01:08:26his essence feeds it
01:08:27feeds it that's why he's the key to breaking the cycle then we find him if
01:08:35there's a way to bring him back we'll figure it out James waiting but so am I
01:08:50this place is worse than I remember it's like it's waiting for us
01:08:56mm-hmm or for Nina James is here I can feel it
01:09:03Nina did you hear that James James it's me can you hear me you know you shouldn't
01:09:15be here it's not safe
01:09:19what is coming for you it's coming for you find me the heart the heart that's where he
01:09:33is the heart is at the core of the veil if James is tied to it separating him won't be easy
01:09:46nothing about this has ever been easy guys we need to figure out a plan before taking him out
01:09:52that thing in the shadow wouldn't let us just take him like that
01:09:55James stay with me don't let it take you trying but the veil is too strong Nina you have to do
01:10:10something pull him out we can't just hold the devil back forever she can't do it alone you
01:10:17all must focus the veil feeds on division only unity can break and separate them
01:10:26yeah I don't know if I can the veil is part of me now it's not enough part of me still here
01:10:48you have done enough for me no we can figure this out we just need more time there has to be
01:10:58another way to fix this I am not leaving you here like this it's too late if I leave I will you die
01:11:05there's no way that's it everything has a solution we've been through so much before
01:11:12the veil is unyielding to exist outside of it James would need to sever himself completely
01:11:20but he feeds on the energy without it he won't survive I don't care what it takes to fix this
01:11:31you deserve to come home I can feel your love that's enough for me
01:11:36if we stay here any longer the veil might trap all of us we have to go Nina she's right
01:11:46James wouldn't want us to risk our lives that's not what he'd want for us no James I can't leave
01:11:51you again not like this you are not losing me I will always be with you in here Nina we have
01:12:00to go the veil is not going to wait and I will never stop watching you little bird
01:12:07move the veil is closing in
01:12:14we made it out barely
01:12:29he's safe now in his own way he's still gone I could save him
01:12:37you gave him peace Nina which is more than the veil ever offered him
01:12:46goodbye James I'll never forget you
01:12:51open the portal
01:13:04it's starting we have to do this now
01:13:11well just hope it works
01:13:14focus focus think about why we're here what are we fighting for
01:13:24you think to feel success will help you defeat me you cannot end me you belong to me
01:13:32we belong to no one this ends now don't stop
01:13:39keep going
01:13:47keep going
01:13:52that's it the heart of the veil
01:14:00they've done it
01:14:08but the veil won't give up without a fight
01:14:12guys we can't hold off the evil forever the veil's core is weakening its heart is its anchor if you destroy it it will collapse you have to act fast
01:14:31what happens to Eleanor and James if we do she will be freed from this evil as will James let's finish this you cannot escape you cannot bring the cycle yes we can
01:14:38run get to Eleanor's room it's the only safe place
01:15:08and Eleanor
01:15:20Neva sweetheart you're here
01:15:23you've done so much
01:15:28and the strength of the veil is weaking
01:15:32wait we need to get you out of here the veil is collapsing
01:15:36I can't leave
01:15:38I cannot leave just yet I'm still held back by the darkness of the veil
01:15:43then how do we break it for good
01:15:45the anchor must be severed completely
01:15:49but for that we must come together
01:15:51we'll do it together
01:15:53let's end this
01:15:56you cannot destroy me
01:16:03you cannot destroy me
01:16:05I am
01:16:06not anymore
01:16:10it's
01:16:14gone
01:16:16the veil is gone
01:16:18the veil is gone
01:16:29you've done it
01:16:32you've broken the cycle
01:16:34the veil is no more
01:16:36the past has been severed
01:16:38you are free
01:16:40we couldn't have done it without you
01:16:42aunt Eleanor
01:16:43we did it
01:16:50it's finally over
01:16:52it's
01:16:55peaceful but it's a little bit empty somehow
01:16:58we've done so much
01:17:01and now
01:17:02now what
01:17:04now we just
01:17:06move on
01:17:08and
01:17:08leave all this behind
01:17:10now we rebuild
01:17:10we take what we've learned
01:17:12and we move forward
01:17:14for Eleanor's sake
01:17:16if nothing else
01:17:17what about you?
01:17:20what happens to you?
01:17:22my time here is done
01:17:24Eleanor's legacy is complete
01:17:27this house is no longer a prison
01:17:30it's free
01:17:31as are all of you
01:17:33but remember
01:17:35Eleanor's legacy was never about
01:17:39ending the cycle
01:17:41it was about giving you
01:17:42the chance to live beyond it
01:17:45we'll live
01:17:46we'll make sure it wasn't all for nothing
01:17:48you freed this place
01:17:51and yourselves
01:17:52Eleanor would be proud
01:17:57she was so close
01:18:01if she just had more time
01:18:04she left us a legacy
01:18:09she left us the tools
01:18:11to finish what she started
01:18:13I know
01:18:16but
01:18:17if we've been here sooner
01:18:19maybe we'll just save her from
01:18:21she made her choice
01:18:23Lila
01:18:24just like we made ours
01:18:26we cannot change the past
01:18:28but we can live our honor
01:18:31from now
01:18:32you're right
01:18:34we have our own path
01:18:36it's not
01:18:37we made it through
01:18:47but what comes next?
01:18:49let's see where it takes us
01:19:17everything is different now
01:19:22no more shifting spaces
01:19:25and no more feelings like
01:19:27we're in some endless nightmare
01:19:29it feels like
01:19:31the weight of the world
01:19:32has lifted off our shoulders
01:19:34you've broken the cycle
01:19:36but at great expense
01:19:38Eleanor gave everything she had
01:19:41to try to set you free
01:19:42and in the end
01:19:43you did what she couldn't
01:19:45you ended the vale reign
01:19:47over this place
01:19:48we found peace
01:19:50it wasn't easy
01:19:52but we did it
01:19:53so we can just
01:19:55continue the way
01:19:57with the knowledge
01:19:58that we've gained
01:19:59rest is up to us
01:20:01this is where we part ways
01:20:08I guess
01:20:09it doesn't have to be
01:20:12we can visit
01:20:13we'll always have this place
01:20:18as a part of our story
01:20:20and the mystery of the end
01:20:22will live in our memories forever
01:20:24maybe it's time to make new stories
01:20:28maybe this will always be a reminder
01:20:43even when shadows envelop us
01:20:46there is always line
01:20:47to dispel the shadows
01:20:48it was about truth
01:20:56not the kind that gets published
01:20:58or reported
01:20:58but the kind that sets you free
01:21:01she gave me the keys to understanding
01:21:08and in return
01:21:10I'll live with her
01:21:12sacrifice
01:21:13and live well
01:21:14I spent years
01:21:22trying to make sense
01:21:23of the darkness
01:21:23but I've learned
01:21:25the darkness
01:21:26isn't always evil
01:21:27sometimes
01:21:29they are reflections
01:21:30it's easier to create
01:21:33when you understand the light
01:21:35and now
01:21:36I can
01:21:37this place
01:21:43gave me the strength
01:21:44to find myself again
01:21:45the veil is no more
01:21:47time for new beginnings
01:21:49this is more than a hotel
01:21:52it's a home
01:21:53a safe place
