Short filmTranscript
00:00:00You are cordially invited to the reading of Eleanor Winter's will. Attendance is
00:00:16required for consideration of inheritance. Frostwood Inn. Why would Eleanor choose me?
00:00:23A free trip to the middle of nowhere. Must be my lucky day.
00:00:31Frostwood Inn invitation? Interesting. Maybe I'll find some inspiration there.
00:00:43Oh, Aunt Eleanor, you never stop chasing ghosts.
00:00:49You're the first to arrive. Come in before the storm swallows you whole.
00:01:11What a charming little icebox.
00:01:17Miss Monroe. Just in time.
00:01:25Of course she invited the mysterious bookworm.
00:01:29Um, nice to meet you, Miss Nina. Call me Nina.
00:01:35Did I just sign up for Arctic Expedition?
00:01:51I'm Alex. And you must be...
00:01:59Laila. Nice to meet you.
00:02:01I love your podcast, by the way.
00:02:03Thanks.
00:02:05I guess we are all here for the same reason.
00:02:13Unless you're here to critique the architecture.
00:02:15I'm Jules, by the way. Nice to meet you all.
00:02:19Welcome to Frostwood Inn.
00:02:31The will shall be read tomorrow.
00:02:33Settling upstairs, we have the male and female board.
00:02:37Sweet. I guess I got the whole wing by myself.
00:02:41It's best to stay in your room at night.
00:03:03This inn has quirks.
00:03:21Fantastic. Quirks. My foot.
00:03:27Miss Gracie?
00:03:53Miss Gracie?
00:03:55Is that you?
00:03:59You....
00:04:15You...
00:04:16Okay, definitely not creepy at all.
00:04:19Hey...
00:04:20Rooms shift, shadows move, the inn hides its truth behind wheels.
00:04:41This place doesn't feel alive, it feels watchful.
00:04:48Let's hope that morning brings us the answers.
00:04:54Eleanor Winters leaves Frostwood Inn to the four of you,
00:04:59provided you reside here together for three weeks.
00:05:05Three weeks in this old place with strangers?
00:05:09It's a small price to pay for an inn like this.
00:05:12Right, says the woman who probably brought a Wi-Fi router.
00:05:17And if you live before them, you shall forfeit the inheritance.
00:05:27Three weeks isn't that long.
00:05:29If we can work together, we could change our lives.
00:05:33Changing our lives? How? Like, what's the catch?
00:05:38The catch is, we're here because Eleanor wanted to watch us squirm.
00:05:43I'm sure this is some reality TV show or prank or something.
00:05:47Maybe. But why us? It all has to be for a reason.
00:05:54Maybe she wanted us to find something?
00:06:00The inn has secrets, some of which are better left undisturbed.
00:06:08What was Eleanor hiding?
00:06:26Did you say something?
00:06:28Um, no, no nothing.
00:06:31Um, let's go downstairs, Eleanor to use the fireplace's warmth.
00:06:36Sure.
00:06:37Coming, Nina?
00:06:39Uh, you guys go ahead. I'll come by later.
00:06:45Okay.
00:06:50Let's walk this place up.
00:07:01You don't just leave it into a stranger's.
00:07:05Unless there's something you want them to find.
00:07:20What do we have here?
00:07:22The veil binds us all.
00:07:31Time twists and the voices echo.
00:07:34Where the light cannot reach.
00:07:38This is Eleanor's.
00:07:39It has to be.
00:07:41But what does any of it mean?
00:07:52We don't need to like each other.
00:08:04We just need to survive for three weeks.
00:08:06Survive?
00:08:07What do you mean survive?
00:08:09Make it sound like we're in danger.
00:08:11She's not wrong.
00:08:13There is something off about this place.
00:08:15The way the air feels.
00:08:17Don't pretend like you haven't noticed.
00:08:20People did disappear here sometimes in the past.
00:08:24Come on, Alex.
00:08:25Don't let the atmosphere get to you.
00:08:28Oh, maybe.
00:08:29Or maybe we should be paying attention to the things that feels weird before it's too late.
00:08:36Danger doesn't always come from outside, Miss Winters.
00:08:44Are you saying the danger's inside?
00:08:47What kind of games are you playing here, Mrs. Grayson?
00:08:50Games have rules, Miss Carter.
00:08:53This house does not.
00:09:03The walls speak if you listen.
00:09:05Truth lies in silence.
00:09:08Let's face it.
00:09:09Eleanor chose us for a reason.
00:09:10What's everyone hiding?
00:09:11Why does it matter?
00:09:12She's dead and we're stuck here.
00:09:13I just want my share in to leave.
00:09:14Well, actually, I found something.
00:09:15And there is written something about listening to the walls.
00:09:18So, maybe we can see if there is something more that we can realize.
00:09:23You think she left clues for us? Why?
00:09:39The inn doesn't take kindly to curiosity.
00:09:44Remember, it killed the cat.
00:09:47Ah!
00:11:17Lovely, isn't it?
00:11:24You shouldn't be here.
00:11:28I... I just got lost exploring the place.
00:11:31Jules?
00:11:41You seem jittery.
00:11:44Have you found anything interesting?
00:11:46Jittery?
00:11:47Me?
00:11:48No.
00:11:49You must be mistaken.
00:11:50I'm just adjusting to the cult, I guess.
00:11:55Or maybe it's Eleanor's idea of crazy social experiment.
00:12:00Or maybe she just wanted us to drive each other crazy.
00:12:04I mean...
00:12:06I...
00:12:34Where's that room?
00:12:45I'm sure it was that way.
00:12:47Do you hear sounds at night, like whispers?
00:13:00Maybe.
00:13:02Why?
00:13:03Because I think the inn is trying to tell us something.
00:13:12Some whispers are best ignored.
00:13:16They are but figments of your imagination.
00:13:23I'm starting to not like her.
00:13:26Oh, you and me?
00:13:27Both.
00:13:28Both.
00:13:32I'm sure I wasn't dreaming.
00:13:41I trotted the whole place and I still can't find the painting.
00:13:45Good afternoon.
00:13:46Can I help you with something?
00:13:50I'm looking for a room with a painting.
00:13:53A large painting.
00:13:54I tried looking for it, but I can't seem to find it.
00:13:59This inn tends to shift about.
00:14:03It only lets you see what it wants you to see.
00:14:07What do you mean?
00:14:08Like...
00:14:09It switches space?
00:14:11Maybe.
00:14:23Oh!
00:14:24Here comes the loner.
00:14:26Haven't seen you all day.
00:14:27What have you been up to?
00:14:28You look worn out.
00:14:29You sleep much?
00:14:31I...
00:14:31It...
00:14:34It must be the weather.
00:14:36I...
00:15:00Who's there?
00:15:04Was this place always like this?
00:15:07Strange.
00:16:08You're up early.
00:16:12I couldn't sleep much last night.
00:16:15Yeah, me neither.
00:16:17I don't know how you feel, but this place, it gives me creeps.
00:16:23If I could, I would have left long ago.
00:16:26Say no more.
00:16:27I have the same feeling.
00:16:28This house is so strange.
00:16:30It's giving me creeps.
00:16:32And actually, Eleanor was too much loony towards the end.
00:16:38Check this out.
00:16:39Can you keep secrets?
00:16:47Hmm.
00:16:48So last night, I stumbled upon this random room.
00:16:53It was like much bigger than my room, but in the room, there was a huge posture of Eleanor.
00:16:58And in that room, there was a huge trunk.
00:17:05And I think maybe there's some of Eleanor's stuff inside.
00:17:10Do you want to check it out with me?
00:17:11Sorry to disturb you, lovebirds.
00:17:20What's for breakfast?
00:17:23Damn the storm.
00:17:24Killing all the lights just like that.
00:17:26I wonder how long this blackout will last.
00:17:30What's wrong?
00:17:33Have you noticed anything strange about this inn?
00:17:37I mean, besides all the usual creepy things that are happening.
00:17:41Um, you'll have to be a bit more specific.
00:17:44This place is practically a shrine to strange.
00:17:49Eleanor's room.
00:17:50I think it's moving.
00:17:53Eleanor's room?
00:17:54This inn doesn't have a master's bedroom.
00:17:57I used to come up here for holidays, and I've never heard of a master's bedroom.
00:18:00It does.
00:18:02I found it earlier, and when I went back, it was gone.
00:18:06Like, completely.
00:18:08The house, the room, doesn't want to be found.
00:18:13It moves, like, shifts around the house?
00:18:17That's ridiculous.
00:18:18Where exactly did you find this room?
00:18:20Down the halfway, at the end.
00:18:24This inn always had a left and right wings upstairs, but there is no middle wing.
00:18:31What?
00:18:32May I?
00:18:33Rooms that don't stay in place.
00:18:39Scary sounds that echo the spaces.
00:18:41The house rearranges itself to guard its secrets.
00:18:45Exactly.
00:18:47Eleanor's bedroom isn't just a bedroom.
00:18:50It's hiding something.
00:18:53And I'm sure it's tied up to the heart of all those creepy things that are happening.
00:19:00I found this there.
00:19:12Let's see what else we can find.
00:19:17Are you ready?
00:19:17Yes, where's the room?
00:19:22It's there around the hallway.
00:19:24Something about it feels off.
00:19:27Off?
00:19:28Like, hunt it off?
00:19:30Or, losing it off?
00:19:33I don't know.
00:19:37Come on.
00:19:38Well, great.
00:19:45Let's poke around in some creepy room with the ominous trunk.
00:19:50That's such a good idea.
00:19:52If there's anything, any answer, that's what's happening in here.
00:19:57It has to be in that room.
00:19:59Are you in?
00:20:01I'm in.
00:20:02Let's go before I change my mind.
00:20:04There it is.
00:20:12Okay.
00:20:15After you, brave explorer.
00:20:17Okay.
00:20:34This portrait is really creepy, right?
00:20:45Why does it feel she's watching us?
00:20:49Maybe she is.
00:20:54Do you feel that?
00:20:56It's a temperature drop.
00:20:58Yeah.
00:21:00Something's wrong.
00:21:02Tell me that's not moving.
00:21:03It wasn't like that before.
00:21:09Should we try opening it?
00:21:14We've come this far.
00:21:17Okay.
00:21:17It's not safe here.
00:21:36No!
00:21:43Okay.
00:21:44Next time, remind me not to volunteer for creepy room day.
00:21:48That trunk is hiding something.
00:21:52We're going to have to go back there.
00:21:53The space shifts.
00:21:59What was the hallway is now a staircase.
00:22:02What was my room yesterday is a parlor today.
00:22:05But the whispers lead the way.
00:22:10This has to be it.
00:22:11At the nurse's room.
00:22:14If the space shifts, maybe we can predict where it goes next.
00:22:17But how do we track something that doesn't stay still?
00:22:21The entry says, follow the whispers.
00:22:23Maybe that's the clue.
00:22:34There should be somewhere around here.
00:22:36Maybe...
00:22:37Wait, do you hear that?
00:22:38The whispers, just like the guest books are.
00:22:41Jules, Nina, what are you doing here?
00:22:45What are you doing here?
00:22:50Well, I guess we're all in this together now.
00:23:11The whispers, they were louder this time.
00:23:37Like they wanted us to hear them.
00:23:38The cycle must end.
00:23:41What does that even mean?
00:23:42And why do we keep hearing it?
00:23:45Everything is tied up to the trunk.
00:23:47The box, the diary.
00:23:49Everything is in the nurse's room.
00:23:51So the answers must be there.
00:23:53We just need to figure out how to open this box.
00:23:56And risk waking up whatever that's inside this box?
00:23:59We're already knowing too much.
00:24:01The house doesn't want us to know this much.
00:24:03Look at the symbols.
00:24:05They match the diagraphs from the dialogue.
00:24:08This box needs a key to open.
00:24:11A key?
00:24:12Jules, the key!
00:24:13The key you found earlier!
00:24:14This is odd.
00:24:19What's...
00:24:20Look at these photographs!
00:24:22There must be a mistake.
00:24:29No, it's authentic, all right.
00:24:35Guys, you're not going to believe this.
00:24:41Authorities are baffled as four individuals mysteriously disappeared from Frostwood Inn.
00:24:49Curses were last seen entering the primes.
00:24:52But no signs of struggle or departure has been found.
00:24:54Local whispers of the inn's dark reputation fueling fears of an unexplainable curse.
00:24:58This was from 50 years ago.
00:24:59Well, I'll be damned, the date matches the disappearance, but that doesn't explain anything.
00:25:03Do you think that's why Eleanor brought us here together?
00:25:06We're barely getting the surface scratch, and I'm supposed to believe there's some grand mystery here?
00:25:11There is a mystery, Nina.
00:25:12Eleanor didn't just pick up us by accident.
00:25:18The picture says it all.
00:25:19I mean, we're not just some random strangers.
00:25:25It proves nothing.
00:25:2650 years ago, I was just getting the exuberant.
00:25:28And I told you that, you were just gonna go to the hospital.
00:25:29That's it.
00:25:30I mean, this was from 50 years ago.
00:25:32Well, I'll be damned.
00:25:33The date matches the disappearance.
00:25:34But that doesn't explain anything.
00:25:35Do you think that's why Eleanor brought us here together?
00:25:37We're barely getting the surface scratch, and I'm supposed to believe there's some grand mystery here?
00:25:42There is a mystery, Nina.
00:25:43Eleanor didn't just pick up us by accident.
00:25:45The picture says it all.
00:25:46Nothing 50 years ago. I wasn't even born and somehow I ended up in a photograph with my aunt
00:25:52We can't deny the photograph Nina. We're also confused
00:25:56But I agree with Laila
00:25:58We are not chosen at random
00:26:01We all have our own role to play and it's our duty to find out which ones
00:26:08Time is in the straight line. We thought it was
00:26:11I mean Eleanor
00:26:13Somehow chose us to be here at this moment
00:26:17Eleanor never said she knew us before we were born
00:26:21This is all confusing
00:26:23But at least we found something. Why don't we just start here?
00:26:32My my the past doesn't like to be disturbed
00:26:37Enough with this cryptic nonsense. What does this mean?
00:26:40It means you've walked into a time trap
00:26:45Guys, this is incredible. They're not just journal entries
00:26:49They're more like research
00:26:52Like she was piecing the secrets of the house together
00:26:55Can anyone make sense of this? I'm hitting the wall with these symbols and diagrams
00:27:00They're not exactly my four
00:27:07The symbols
00:27:09They're references to alchemy and ancient sealing
00:27:12Rituals and look here
00:27:15This diagram matches the layout of the inn
00:27:17Why is she right all this and left it behind?
00:27:21Maybe she wanted somebody to find this
00:27:24Somebody who could end what she started
00:27:27The veil must hold or the shadows will consume
00:27:32The heart of the house is key found by time and intent
00:27:37The heart of the house
00:27:38She means the source of all of this
00:27:42The thing we need to destroy
00:27:44The symbol is repeated everywhere
00:27:47It has to mean something
00:27:49Maybe it's the anchor of the veil
00:27:53This man
00:27:57He's in the locket we found earlier
00:28:00Who is he?
00:28:01The man Eleanor feared I think
00:28:04Or
00:28:05The man who betrayed her
00:28:06A betrayal?
00:28:07But for me Eleanor didn't seem someone who would trust anyone that much
00:28:12What if she did trust him?
00:28:14Maybe that's why we're here
00:28:18Wait
00:28:22He will come back for what I took
00:28:24His revenge is inevitable
00:28:27She was terrified
00:28:28We're not just dealing with an inheritance
00:28:32This
00:28:34Is personal
00:28:35This man
00:28:36He's why we're here
00:28:38Eleanor thought someone would return
00:28:40The journal
00:28:42It mentioned betrayal
00:28:44What if the man is still watching us?
00:28:47What's that?
00:28:49I swear if this turns into a ghost story
00:28:51I'm not staying here
00:28:53I don't think it's a ghost
00:28:55You've already awakened what was meant to stay
00:28:58You've already buried
00:29:20These letters
00:29:21They are signed by Jay
00:29:22Jay
00:29:26The man in the photo
00:29:28These letters
00:29:30Of Jay's
00:29:31He wasn't just angry
00:29:33He was planning something
00:29:36Why would she keep these hidden?
00:29:38Was she scared he'd come back?
00:29:40Maybe she was
00:29:41The man
00:29:42Jay
00:29:44Maybe he's the one who is watching us
00:29:46Listen to this one
00:29:58The light will reveal the truth
00:30:03The light will reveal the truth
00:30:15But whispers in the dark will always remain
00:30:17What was that?
00:30:18What was that?
00:30:23Okay, can we for one moment not die of a heart attack while we're trying to solve this?
00:30:29You found the truth, but now you've crossed the line. The past won't forgive.
00:30:42Why are we here? It doesn't feel random.
00:30:44Maybe it were the loose ends that Eleanor wanted to tie up. Or whoever that J guy is.
00:30:50This is just like Eleanor. She likes toying with people. This could be nothing.
00:30:56What if it's not? What if she was trying to protect us?
00:31:02Perhaps Eleanor was trying to protect herself. But you've already disturbed that which should remain undisturbed.
00:31:11What does that mean?
00:31:12It means you've brought the past closer than you think.
00:31:18He watches from the whale. The one who betrayed me seeks to undo what I've built.
00:31:24Who's he? What's his name? It cannot be just J.
00:31:27Eleanor wouldn't leave these hints to us if it was that simple. She probably wants us to find him. Or what he has left for us.
00:31:39And we're all just blindly playing along? For all we know, this J could still be around.
00:31:44Then why all these warnings? She must have been terrified.
00:31:49If Eleanor wants us to find something, it's not just her words. It's somewhere over here.
00:31:59Is it just me? Or did Eleanor keep all her life hidden in puzzles?
00:32:06That's probably cheaper than a therapy.
00:32:09What was their connection?
00:32:10He was her greatest love. And her greatest disappointment.
00:32:19Oh, so you knew him. Then why don't you try to mention it even once?
00:32:24Some stories are better left untold. But Eleanor didn't leave you that choice, did she?
00:32:36I gave him my trust, my heart, and he took everything. But I will ensure he never gets what he truly wants.
00:32:43What did he want? The inn? Her fortune?
00:32:48Or her silence. Open it already.
00:32:51Wait, what if it's another warning? Eleanor didn't just give us these clues for fun, right?
00:32:58Well, we've already ignored the other ones. Let's see how bad this can get.
00:33:02To the one I rung, I knew my betrayal would lead us both here. The truth lies where the heart was broken.
00:33:17That's it? Another cryptic line? Typical Eleanor.
00:33:22That's not just it. She's committing guilt.
00:33:28Where the heart remembers?
00:33:29It's a clue. Another scavenger game? Great!
00:33:38So what? She cheated someone out of money? Broke their heart? Why drag us into it?
00:33:44Because we're connected. She said the truth lies where the heart was broken. It should mean something.
00:33:50Yeah, let's all take turns and we guess who's next to get haunted.
00:33:53You found what Eleanor feared most. Be careful where you look next.
00:34:04Why? What's left to find?
00:34:07The truth. And the one she betrayed.
00:34:12The truth lies beneath the veil of memory.
00:34:17Who's there?
00:34:19The truth lies beneath the veil of memory.
00:34:20What was that?
00:34:21What was that?
00:34:25To understand the past, you must face the future, look to where memory fades, and you
00:34:54will see where memory fades, oh! Alex, what's wrong? You look like you've seen a ghost. Not
00:35:06a ghost, just a message. This is more than just Eleanor's riddles, where memories fade? This
00:35:21could be obvious, we're looking for something hidden. I know, but where?
00:35:32This, they're from Eleanor's younger age, but there is something off about these pictures.
00:35:39That's odd, why is the guy's face hidden? There is more. So, it's addressed to Eleanor,
00:35:47but it's signed Jay. I promised I'd return for Rochester for me. You can run, but you
00:35:53can't hide. The truth will find you. Jay.
00:35:59So Jay is the one Eleanor betrayed, but then why is he threatening us now?
00:36:12You found the door to the past, but should it be unlocked? Some doors are better left closed.
00:36:21You have been saying cryptic shit all this time. What do you know, Mrs. Grayson?
00:36:26The truth is more dangerous than you think. You better be careful what you awaken.
00:36:42This, this feels wrong. Guys, I've seen this symbol in her diaries and it's already. It means
00:36:52we need to leave. We're not leaving. Not until we find what we want. Someone's coming, quickly, hide!
00:37:12What's this? What's this? Why were you hidden here?
00:37:39Okay, definitely not creepy at all.
00:37:46Shh, stay quiet. Whoever it is, we don't want them to know we're here.
00:37:54You're not ready for this. None of you are. Too long I have waited for this.
00:38:21What was that? What does she know? It seemed like she was talking to someone, but who? There
00:38:34was nobody before we entered the room.
00:38:38She's definitely hiding something. I don't know what, but it's more than just a housekeeper's secrets.
00:38:45Any of you feel like you're being watched? Let's get back to her rooms. We'll discuss this in the morning. Remember to lock your rooms.
00:38:53That was really dangerous. We almost got off. Oh, Jules! How good of you to join us. Where were you last night?
00:39:02Why? Okay, enough. We've been here long enough. We're all on edge, Nina. This place is trying to divide us. How about we just get back on track and we can figure out what's in that drawer?
00:39:17Um, here. I found this in the female boarding room. Thought it might help us to unlock something we're missing.
00:39:31Guess we'll find out soon enough. Wait. What if Eleonore didn't want us to find out?
00:39:47The truth will be your undoing. The past cannot be erased.
00:40:16Nor can it be undone. Beware the one who waits.
00:40:21Who's the one who waits?
00:40:27We shouldn't have done this.
00:40:39We're going to uncover everything. After this, there is no turning back.
00:40:44What are these cheap batteries?
00:40:47What is this? Why is it so cold?
00:40:49Something is wrong. We shouldn't be here.
00:40:53Shut up. With you, nothing is ever right. The sooner we lose this mystery, the better.
00:40:57Guys, this must be Eleonore's private journal.
00:41:01Look at those notes.
00:41:03Look. It's another one of hers. Eleonore's handwriting.
00:41:08I knew the veil would break one day. He waits for what I took. And he won't stop until it's his again.
00:41:15Who is he? And what's the veil?
00:41:18Fantastic. So we've hit the ghost jackpot now?
00:41:24Some truths are better left buried.
00:41:27Heavens, would it kill you to announce yourself once in a while?
00:41:30Why should it be hidden? What was Eleonore so scared of?
00:41:34You are not ready for the truth.
00:41:45Great. More puzzles. Does Eleonore think we're detectives or something?
00:41:50Well, she did invite us here to clean up her mess.
00:41:53To those who follow, beware what you're uncovered. The past holds more than memories. It holds him.
00:42:02It's Eleonore. And him again.
00:42:08This guy. Jay. Whoever he is, he must be the key to all of this.
00:42:14Who is he? And why did Eleonore keep this hidden?
00:42:22Because she knew what he was capable of. She knew he would not stop.
00:42:27Why not tell us? Why leave us all the breadcrumbs?
00:42:31Because she knew you were the only ones who could stop him.
00:42:35You know what? It's late. And I'm tired. I'm fucking tired.
00:42:41I don't know about you guys, but I'm gonna go back and take a warm bath to wash out all the soreness and the dust.
00:42:49Good night.
00:42:52Um, excuse me. Uh, good night.
00:43:00The veil isn't just a metaphor. It's the barrier that keeps him out.
00:43:11It's the barrier that keeps him out.
00:43:14Help!
00:43:16Who's there?
00:43:29What happened? Are you okay?
00:43:31It-it talked to me. It said we've gone too far.
00:43:35He lives between what was and what is. The veil is his prison, but he's breaking free.
00:43:47What is it even supposed to mean?
00:43:50It means he's waking up. Eleonore used to keep him locked away.
00:43:56But you're breaking down these walls.
00:43:58Who? Who's tearing down the walls?
00:44:06Mrs. Grayson, I think you owe us answers at this point.
00:44:10What do you wish to know?
00:44:13If this guy is real, why hasn't he shown himself?
00:44:16He doesn't exist in this plane.
00:44:18But I assure you, he's as real as you and me.
00:44:25Uh, you mentioned someone is waking him up. Who and how?
00:44:30The four of you are waking him up.
00:44:33He feeds on fear.
00:44:37The more you dig,
00:44:42the more strong he becomes.
00:44:44Then why leave us all these clues? Why lead us to him?
00:44:51Eleonore didn't want you to free him.
00:44:55She wanted you to stop him.
00:44:58Great. No pressure.
00:45:14There's nothing concrete there. It's all cryptic warnings.
00:45:28Or maybe that's all Eleonore had. Warnings.
00:45:32Here it is. This is the heart of the house.
00:45:36This is where we can find him. Or stop him.
00:45:39Or stop him.
00:45:48Okay, this is insane. We're walking straight into his trap.
00:45:52Do you have a better idea?
00:45:54Because reading these letters or the notes is not great either.
00:45:59If Eleonore marked this as the heart, it means she meant for us to go.
00:46:04Or where she was trying to warn us not to go.
00:46:10Can we stop it with the dramatics already?
00:46:15You found it.
00:46:17Eleonore's final clue.
00:46:19You mean the creepy heart room?
00:46:22Care to explain what's waiting for us there?
00:46:25This house was built around it.
00:46:28It's where he resides.
00:46:30Eleonore trapped him there.
00:46:32But the veil is breaking.
00:46:35Wonderful.
00:46:37So yeah, we're just gonna walk in and fix her mistakes, right?
00:46:41Eleonore chose you for a reason.
00:46:44You're all connected to him somehow.
00:46:47How are we connected?
00:46:50Think of how you know Eleonore.
00:46:53And then you'll be able to figure out what he wants and why he's interested in the four of you.
00:47:00You seem drawn to this one.
00:47:15It's called transition.
00:47:16It's more than a painting.
00:47:20It's the story.
00:47:22An incomplete one.
00:47:24You think so?
00:47:26Most people just see shadows.
00:47:30Most people are not paying attention.
00:47:33But you are.
00:47:34That's what makes your work so different.
00:47:39Do I know you?
00:47:41You seem familiar.
00:47:43Perhaps.
00:47:45In another time.
00:47:48Well, congratulations on your opening.
00:47:52I'll keep an eye on your work.
00:47:53Your work of art.
00:47:59Art doesn't just reflect the soul.
00:48:05It reveals the unseen.
00:48:08Your studio deserves to stand the test of time.
00:48:11Consider this my contribution.
00:48:12Consider this my contribution.
00:48:19So, Mrs. Jules, your studio has gotten a lot of attention since its opening.
00:48:24Tell me, what inspired this exhibit?
00:48:28Honestly, I don't think I fully understand it myself.
00:48:32These pieces, they just come to me. Like, they are meant to be created.
00:48:39Rumor has it that this was impossible without an anonymous contributor.
00:48:45Any idea of who they are?
00:48:46Fits me. Whoever they are, they believed in myself more than I believed in myself.
00:48:53I wonder if they see the same story in the shadows.
00:48:56Sorry, what was that?
00:48:58Um, no, nothing. I was just thinking out loud.
00:49:01Who are you really, Elioner?
00:49:19That's a charming place.
00:49:22It has an air of curiosity about it.
00:49:24That's what I aim for. Welcome to the Curious Bookworm. Can I help you find anything?
00:49:29Well, I'm actually here to help you. I hear you are quite an investigator of various strange phenomena.
00:49:38What is this?
00:49:39That's a family estate. Has a reputation about it. I think you'll find it interesting.
00:49:47That's incredible, but…
00:49:51And I leave you for a few minutes and you wander off like that.
00:49:55Sorry to bother you. We're leaving.
00:49:58I trust you'll make a good use of it. Just be careful where your curiosity leaves you.
00:50:07Today we are diving into the enigmatic history of Frostbuddin,
00:50:12known for its hunting atmosphere and unexplained events.
00:50:16This estate has been the subject for local legends for decades.
00:50:25Hey, do you have a minute?
00:50:27Sure, what's on your mind?
00:50:29I wanted to apologize to you for the other day.
00:50:31My aunt can be not so okay, so to speak.
00:50:35She may have spoken things to seem odd to you, but she's not a bad person, she's just…
00:50:39You don't believe in her, don't you?
00:50:41I don't. But… Frostbuddin has had strange happenings.
00:50:47But they can all be explained rationally, that's all.
00:50:58You've been running your whole life, Ninam. You can't just keep running.
00:51:12I'm not running. I'm just not interested in chasing shadows.
00:51:17These are not shadows. This is our family legacy.
00:51:24An old, creepy inn? Sounds more like a burden, not a legacy.
00:51:28You have no idea what Frostbuddin is holding. This is not just an inn.
00:51:36This is about who we are, and one day you will understand.
00:51:41If it's so important to you, why don't you deal with it yourself? Why drag me into it?
00:51:45Because I won't always be here.
00:51:49What do you want me to do?
00:51:50For now, just listen. And when the time comes, you will know what to do.
00:51:59You should know better than to wander off, Ant. Library had nothing much about Frostbuddin.
00:52:03Well, sometimes you need to go elsewhere to find out the truth.
00:52:07You know, you have to be more curious.
00:52:09Because that's how we find out who we are.
00:52:12Or how we waste time chasing ghosts.
00:52:14Legends of Frostbuddin speak of a mysterious veil that protects its secrets, but also binds
00:52:27those who inherit its legacy. Is it a place of power, or a curse waiting to claim its next victim?
00:52:33Hey! I've been listening to your podcast.
00:52:43Wow, I'm flattered. Don't tell me I've converted you into a believer.
00:52:48Honestly, I thought it was just stories, but I'm not so sure. My aunt Eleanor, she's obsessed with Frostbuddin.
00:52:57Yeah. Eleanor mentioned you. She thinks that you might be a part of something bigger.
00:53:03She's good at being cryptic. Do you think there's anything real behind all this?
00:53:07I think it's worth looking to it. I mean, if she's right, you might be a key to understanding it.
00:53:14I'm not so sure I want to understand this.
00:53:27The Frostbuddin is more than just an old building. It's a mystery, woven into the fabric of our town.
00:53:43A place where stories seem to go to hide and people sometimes vanish altogether.
00:53:50Some call it cursed, others a masterpiece of misfortune.
00:53:54But the question remains, what is Frostbud really hiding?
00:54:09Yeah?
00:54:10What the hell is this, Alex? I told you to stick to the mayoral campaign.
00:54:15This is bigger than politics, Marcus.
00:54:18Four people disappeared near that end 50 years ago.
00:54:21There was not a trace and nobody was connecting the dots.
00:54:24Until now.
00:54:25There are no dots to connect. You are pushing a ghost story. We are not running this.
00:54:30The public deserves to know the truth.
00:54:39The truth about Frostbud may never fully be uncovered.
00:54:42But for those brave or foolish, enough to try, it's a path you can walk back from.
00:54:50Looks like I'm going back to the story.
00:54:54I'm going back to the story.
00:54:56Jay, where are you, Mr. Jay?
00:55:00The faint whisper of Jay, the one who holds the key to all of this.
00:55:06I fear I have failed him, but he will come when it is time.
00:55:11I only hope it is not too late.
00:55:13Wait, she said that he would come whenever is the time.
00:55:20What if he's not just someone from her past? What if he's been here all along?
00:55:25Or what if he's the one that we have been interacting the whole time, but we didn't even realize?
00:55:37I see you're trying to find the identity of Jay.
00:55:42Why don't you tell us more about him?
00:55:44Was he an enemy of a friend?
00:55:46Eleanor trusted Jay, because she knew him better than anyone else.
00:55:50But he was also the reason why she was trapped here.
00:55:53Why? What's his connection to all of this?
00:55:58Jay wasn't a stranger. He was, or is, one of you.
00:56:04What do you mean, one of us?
00:56:08He vanished. Or rather, part of him vanished 50 years ago.
00:56:16One of us? So he's been here all along?
00:56:19Jay was your connection to the Vale, but he became part of the Shadow.
00:56:26He was trapped in the Earthreal plane with Eleanor.
00:56:30His identity was lost, his memory wiped, until all of you returned.
00:56:39So Jay has been here all the time?
00:56:44Yes. Jay is the missing piece, the key to the cycle. He was tied to the Vale.
00:56:54Just like you all were.
00:56:55He wasn't fortunate enough to come out whole, like you back then.
00:57:06Whole? What do you mean, whole?
00:57:11Jay was none other than James, your brother, Nina.
00:57:14James, my brother? But he's been in a wheelchair for as long as I can remember.
00:57:26The last time you were together, he got lost in the Vale and he sacrificed part of himself so that you could all get out.
00:57:34Eleanor went back to try to get the piece that he had left behind so that he could be whole again.
00:57:44But she discovered the Shadow merged with him.
00:57:50In essence, he became that which you were trying to escape.
00:57:55This map was Eleanor's last attempt to escape the Vale.
00:58:05She believes the in-spaces shift, mirroring their counterparts in the Vale.
00:58:11Therefore, for instance, becomes a heart.
00:58:16How about other rooms? Like boarding rooms?
00:58:23They become manifestations of the Vale's power. Each one feeding evil.
00:58:29So, how do we get in? Are we supposed to just walk into some other dimension?
00:58:35This will help you cross over. This is how Eleanor went in and how you will follow her.
00:58:41So, what if we can't come back?
00:58:44Then the Vale will claim you.
00:58:46Then let's do this. We've come too far to back out now.
00:58:50Worlds align and worlds collide. Worlds arrive and worlds collide. Let them all come inside!
00:59:03This... this doesn't feel right. It's too late to back out now.
00:59:20Step through. Together.
00:59:33Don't let us get lost. You are stronger than the evil! Trust each other!
00:59:52This... this is the Vale? It looks... warped.
00:59:58It's not just warped. It's... wrong. Look at the walls. They're breathing.
01:00:05Look at this place. Stick together. We don't know what's real here.
01:00:11You've come back. The cycle begins.
01:00:15This place... it's alive!
01:00:17I'm alive and watching this.
01:00:20It sucks. Careful. Please don't go anywhere and don't go separated. Because if this place shifts,
01:00:27we can lose each other. Right. We... we stick together. No matter what.
01:00:50It's a marking. Eleanor must have left it behind.
01:00:54What does it mean? Is it part of the map?
01:00:56It's like a sigil. She'd probably try to contain something here or come back here.
01:01:05Or maybe it's protecting us. Or maybe it's protecting something else. Could you please see if there is
01:01:13anything under it? Wait. What is that? It's like a compass. It's pointing somewhere.
01:01:24Looks like that's where we're going to. Wait. What if it's leading us into a trap?
01:01:30Doesn't matter. If we want to find Eleanor, we're gonna take the risk.
01:01:35Let's go before this place starts changing.
01:01:43This place feels worse than the foyer. Like it's breathing.
01:01:55The compass brought us here. So there has to be something we can find.
01:02:00This markings, it's similar to those in Eleanor's diary. In her journal, she said,
01:02:06the veil imprints itself on the space it consumes.
01:02:08Great. So are we walking in the whale's stomach?
01:02:15Stay close. Don't let the voice mess your mind.
01:02:18The compass. The compass. It's pointing there. It means that evil doesn't want us near it.
01:02:24To hell with that. Let's find out what's inside.
01:02:28Flashlights. Use your lights. It keeps the darkness away.
01:02:33Got it.
01:02:34Let's see what we're supposed to find in this room.
01:02:56Whatever we need must be in that wall.
01:03:02Do you really think with it moving like this we'll just easily give up?
01:03:07Wait. There is something written about this wall in this diary.
01:03:14Speak softly your desires and tap twice to reveal that which is hidden.
01:03:19Right. As if that'll work.
01:03:24You can go far without some fight, little bird.
01:03:29James?
01:03:30I am. But I am not. Yes. Yes. That was what they used to call me.
01:03:38Oh god! James! Is that you?
01:03:40I am here. There. Everywhere. But it's not important. You have to end and free us.
01:03:48Go on. I will hold their food. I will hold their food. I will hold the camp.
01:03:58Quickly! We're here!
01:04:00So, we have the fragments now. What now? How do we use this to end the veil?
01:04:18Well, Eleanor said that fragments must be combined at the heart of the veil.
01:04:23That's this room. But it requires...
01:04:25What? It requires what?
01:04:27It requires a strong bond, strong connection between the people who are involved.
01:04:33Because the veil fits on division and fear.
01:04:36So, we have to connect. Like, we have to have connection. We have to have trust and focus.
01:04:44Great. Trust and focus. No pressure.
01:04:49Can't do battle on an empty stomach and no rest.
01:04:52Well, amen to that. Fighting and running away from the devils is surely a hungry war.
01:05:00Jules, what are you thinking?
01:05:03You said Jay James. He lost a part of himself in the veil.
01:05:10And then Eleanor went there by herself to climb it back and got stuck there?
01:05:15Jules, what are you getting at?
01:05:18Perhaps there is a way how we can save them both.
01:05:20There was just one room that wasn't available. And yet it got shifted back to our reality.
01:05:28Eleanor's room.
01:05:31Yes, and what about it?
01:05:33Let's go back to the veil.
01:05:35I think I know where we can find Eleanor and we can save your brother.
01:05:39First, you all have to take some rest and freshen up. The rescue can wait. They are not going anywhere.
01:05:49James is tied to the veil. His body remains here. But part of him has merged with evil.
01:05:57If you want to bring him back, you'll have to sever that connection.
01:06:02Which means going back. How do you even find him in that place?
01:06:06The veil shifts, but its heart remains constant. You'll find James there.
01:06:17This will guide you to him. But be warned, the veil will fight harder this time,
01:06:24because it knows you're coming to undo its grip.
01:06:28I'm not afraid. I'm getting my brother back.
01:06:33Together.
01:06:36Elyanor wrote about James. She said part of him was left behind when the evil first took him.
01:06:45His memories. His essence. It's still there.
01:06:51If he's connected to the veil, then shouldn't destroying it free him?
01:06:56Not if the evil bound him willingly. His essence feeds it. That's why he's the key
01:07:03to breaking the cycle. Then we find him. If there's a way to bring him back, we'll figure it out.
01:07:10James is waiting. But so am I.
01:07:14This place is worse than I remember. It's like it's waiting for us.
01:07:27James is here. I can feel it.
01:07:33Did you hear that?
01:07:37James? James! It's me! Can you hear me?
01:07:41Nina, you shouldn't be here. It's not safe.
01:07:49Juan, he's coming for you.
01:07:53Wait, James! Don't go!
01:07:54Juan, he's coming for you!
01:07:56What?
01:07:57Find him in the heart.
01:07:59The heart? That's where he is.
01:08:04The heart is at the core of the veil. If James is tied to it, separating him won't be easy.
01:08:17Nothing about this has ever been easy.
01:08:20Guys, we need to figure out a plan before taking him out.
01:08:23That thing in the shadow wouldn't let us just take him like that.
01:08:34James, stay with me and don't let it take you.
01:08:38I'm trying, but the veil is too strong.
01:08:40Nina! You have to do something. Pull him out.
01:08:43We can't just hold the devil back forever.
01:08:45She can't do it alone.
01:08:48You all must focus. The veil feeds on division.
01:08:53Only unity can break and separate them.
01:09:04Nina, I don't know if I can. The veil is part of me now.
01:09:16It's not enough. Part of me is still here.
01:09:20You have done enough for me.
01:09:23No, we can figure this out. We just need more time.
01:09:27There has to be another way to fix this. I am not leaving you here like this.
01:09:31It's too late. If I leave, I will die.
01:09:37There's no way that's it. Everything has a solution. We've been through so much before.
01:09:42The veil is unyielding. To exist outside of it, James would need to sever himself completely.
01:09:52But he feeds on the energy. Without it, he won't survive.
01:09:59I don't care what it takes to fix this. You deserve to come home.
01:10:03I can feel your love. That's enough for me.
01:10:08If we stay here any longer, the veil might trap all of us.
01:10:13We have to go, Nina.
01:10:15She's right. James wouldn't want us to risk our lives. That's not what he'd want for us.
01:10:19No, James. I can't leave you again. Not like this.
01:10:22You are not losing me. I will always be with you in here.
01:10:29Nina, we have to go. The veil is not going to wait.
01:10:33And I will never stop watching you, little bird.
01:10:37Move! The veil is closing in!
01:10:53We made it out. Barely.
01:11:00He's safe now in his own way.
01:11:02He's still gone and I couldn't save him.
01:11:06You gave him peace, Nina, which is more than the veil ever offered him.
01:11:18Good night, James.
01:11:20I'll never forget you.
01:11:28Open the portal!
01:11:37It's starting. We have to do this now.
01:11:41Well, I just hope it works.
01:11:44Focus. Think about why we're here. What are we fighting for?
01:11:53You think your success will help you defeat me?
01:11:56You cannot end me. You belong to me.
01:12:01We belong to no one. This ends now.
01:12:05Don't stop. Keep going.
01:12:26That's it. The heart of the veil.
01:12:35They've done it.
01:12:39But the veil won't give up without a fight.
01:12:57Guys, we can't hold off the evil forever.
01:12:59The veil's core is weakening.
01:13:04Its heart is its anchor.
01:13:06If you destroy it, it will collapse.
01:13:08You have to act fast!
01:13:10What happens to Eleanor and James if we do?
01:13:12She will be freed from this evil.
01:13:16As will James.
01:13:18Let's finish this.
01:13:21You cannot escape.
01:13:22You cannot bring the cycle.
01:13:24Yes, we can!
01:13:29Run! Get to Eleanor's room! It's the only safe place!
01:13:35Let's go!
01:13:47And Eleanor?
01:13:49Nina, sweetheart, you're here.
01:13:51You've done so much.
01:13:57And the strength of the veil is weak.
01:14:01Wait, we need to get you out of here.
01:14:03The veil is collapsing.
01:14:05I can't leave.
01:14:07I cannot leave just yet.
01:14:08I'm still held back by the darkness of the veil.
01:14:11Then how do we break it for good?
01:14:14The anchor must be severed completely.
01:14:17But for that, we must come together.
01:14:19We'll do it together!
01:14:22Let's end this!
01:14:31We cannot destroy him.
01:14:33I am.
01:14:33Let's end this!
01:14:34Let's end this!
01:14:35Let's end this!
01:14:36Not anymore!
01:14:42It's gone.
01:14:46The veil is gone.
01:14:47You've done it!
01:15:00You've broken the cycle!
01:15:02The veil is no more!
01:15:04The past has been severed.
01:15:06You are free.
01:15:08We couldn't have done it without you, Aunt Eleanor.
01:15:12Aunt Eleanor?
01:15:13We did it.
01:15:18It's finally over.
01:15:22It's peaceful, but it's a little bit empty somehow.
01:15:26We've done so much.
01:15:29And now?
01:15:31Now what?
01:15:33Now we just move on and leave all this behind.
01:15:37Now we rebuild.
01:15:38We take what we've learned and we move forward.
01:15:42For Eleanor's sake, if nothing else.
01:15:46What about you?
01:15:47What happens to you?
01:15:50My time here is done.
01:15:52Eleanor's legacy is complete.
01:15:55This house is no longer a prison.
01:15:57It's free.
01:15:59As are all of you.
01:16:02But remember, Eleanor's legacy was never about ending the cycle.
01:16:08It was about giving you the chance to live beyond it.
01:16:13We'll live.
01:16:14We'll make sure it wasn't all for nothing.
01:16:17You freed this place and yourselves.
01:16:20Eleanor would be proud.
01:16:21She was so close.
01:16:28If she just had more time.
01:16:34She left us a legacy.
01:16:36She left us the tools to finish what she started.
01:16:39I know.
01:16:43But if we've been here sooner, maybe we'll just save her from-
01:16:48She made her choice, Lila.
01:16:51Just like we made ours.
01:16:53We cannot change the past.
01:16:56But we can live our honor from now.
01:17:00You're right.
01:17:01We have our own path now.
01:17:09We may be through.
01:17:14But what comes next?
01:17:20We may be through, but what comes next?
01:17:39Let's see where it takes us.
01:17:47Everything is different now.
01:17:49No more shifting spaces.
01:17:52And no more feelings like we're in some endless nightmare.
01:17:55It feels like the weight of the world has lifted off our shoulders.
01:18:00You've broken the cycle, but at great expense.
01:18:04Eleanor gave everything she had to try to set you free.
01:18:07And in the end, you did what she couldn't.
01:18:11You ended the whale reign over this place.
01:18:15We found peace.
01:18:17It wasn't easy, but we did it.
01:18:20So we can just continue the way with the knowledge that we've gained.
01:18:25Rest is up to us.
01:18:32This is where we part ways, I guess.
01:18:34It doesn't have to be.
01:18:38We can visit.
01:18:42We'll always have this place as a part of our story.
01:18:46In the mystery of the end, we'll live with our memories forever.
01:18:51Maybe it's time to make new stories.
01:19:04Maybe this will always be a reminder.
01:19:09Even when shadows envelop us, there is always light to dispel the shadows.
01:19:14It was about truth.
01:19:21Not the kind that gets published or reported, but the kind that sets you free.
01:19:32She gave me the keys to understanding.
01:19:33And in return, I'll live with her sacrifice and live well.
01:19:39I spent years trying to make sense of the darkness.
01:19:49But I have learned the darkness isn't always evil.
01:19:53Sometimes they are reflections.
01:19:56It's easier to create when you understand the light.
01:20:01And now I can.
01:20:08This place gave me the strength to find myself again.
01:20:11The veil is no more.
01:20:13Time for new beginnings.
01:20:14This is more than a hotel.
01:20:18It's a home.
01:20:18A safe place.
