00:02:29So as you can tell, everything comes with a purchase price.
00:02:34The furniture, the pots and pans, all of it.
00:02:40Everything?
00:02:41Yes, everything.
00:02:43So the previous owners had to relocate overseas for work,
00:02:47and they had no time to auction anything off,
00:02:49and it was too expensive to ship.
00:02:52What about our stuff?
00:02:54Well, there's a three-car garage out back.
00:02:57You can just move everything in there and then figure it out later.
00:03:00Problem solved.
00:03:01Perfect.
00:03:04Okay, so what we have here are original hardwood floors,
00:03:08updates throughout this view.
00:03:11I mean, you move in, you're pretty much upper class by the end of the week.
00:03:17And then, of course, there is that folklore that comes along with the estate.
00:03:21Folklore?
00:03:22The ghost?
00:03:24I beg your pardon?
00:03:25Well, that's the story.
00:03:26The royals have Evelyn.
00:03:28The Wendells down the street have Perry.
00:03:30This whole block's accounted for.
00:03:34You cannot be serious.
00:03:36Well, serious or not, houses in this area only stay on the market a few hours.
00:03:41Apparently, a house being haunted is a huge selling feature.
00:03:45Who knew?
00:03:46Haunted by who?
00:03:50Well, the story goes that once you move in, you're visited by a spirit.
00:03:55Your ghost.
00:03:55And then once you see it, it remains in the house forever.
00:03:59I mean, it's all the neighbors talk about.
00:04:01I get a dozen calls a week from couples hoping to find an open property out here.
00:04:06So, who's the ghost?
00:04:08Well, that's the kicker.
00:04:09No one knows.
00:04:10If there's a ghost, and that's a big if.
00:04:13How does no one know?
00:04:15Everyone knows about Evelyn and Perry.
00:04:16How has this ghost kept its identity a secret?
00:04:21I have no idea, but it has.
00:04:23I don't make the rules.
00:04:25Anyway, take all the time you need.
00:04:28I'll be outside once you've made your decision.
00:04:46So, what do you think?
00:04:52It's big.
00:04:54I know.
00:04:54I like it.
00:04:55I like it.
00:05:25A ghost, huh?
00:05:35Ghost or no ghost, this place is beautiful.
00:05:55Mary!
00:05:56Oh.
00:05:57Hi, Patrice.
00:06:01This garden is going to look so nice.
00:06:07This garden is going to look so nice.
00:06:22Just trying to get everything in shape out here for spring.
00:06:25The previous owners weren't much for green thumbs.
00:06:29How's Ned?
00:06:31Oh, you know.
00:06:32Always working.
00:06:33My William, too.
00:06:36Any luck on finding your ghost?
00:06:39Not yet.
00:06:41Shame.
00:06:43Ours brings so much joy to our lives.
00:06:46Patrice, how long was it before you saw it?
00:06:54Pretty soon after we moved in.
00:06:56Maybe the next night.
00:06:57Now, don't stress about it.
00:07:03I'm sure it'll show up any minute now.
00:07:07Oh, my God.
00:07:08I am so sorry.
00:07:10Oh, I should have watched where I put these stupid feet.
00:07:13It's fine.
00:07:13Really.
00:07:14Really.
00:07:14It's not a big deal.
00:07:17Good luck.
00:07:18Good luck.
00:07:48I made dinner.
00:08:16Great.
00:08:16I'm starving.
00:08:42The Florentine was terrific.
00:08:45It's my mother's recipe.
00:08:46Something wrong?
00:08:58Patrice Miller came by while I was in the garden today.
00:09:01I keep telling you we need to get a gate out front.
00:09:04It's not that.
00:09:06Then what?
00:09:09She asked me again if we had seen our ghost yet.
00:09:12Mary.
00:09:13It's been a month.
00:09:15Part of the reason I agreed to buy this place was because I wanted something no one else
00:09:20had.
00:09:20And you have that.
00:09:22Look around.
00:09:23How many other couples our age can say that they live like we do in a place like this?
00:09:27I know.
00:09:28I'm grateful.
00:09:29I am.
00:09:29It's just that why are we the only home on the street with this problem?
00:09:33Problem.
00:09:34It's a problem.
00:09:35We have a problem.
00:09:36You know, Mary, maybe you're getting a little too carried away with the ghost nonsense.
00:09:42Nonsense?
00:09:42Yeah.
00:09:44You know, you're already in the house all day long as it is.
00:09:48You know why I do that.
00:09:50Yeah, you hate people or whatever.
00:09:53But you've got room to move here.
00:09:54We have three acres, not including the garden.
00:09:57Which, by the way, is the furthest that I've seen you walk on the property thus far.
00:10:00You think I want to feel this way?
00:10:05And I don't hate people.
00:10:06I have a problem with open spaces.
00:10:08Okay.
00:10:10I don't want to argue.
00:10:11Okay.
00:10:30Who needs a ghost with you like that?
00:10:49Hmm?
00:11:00Wait here.
00:11:29Ned?
00:11:30Ned?
00:11:46Ned?

00:12:28Ned?
00:12:29Ned?
00:12:30Ned?
00:12:49Yes.
00:12:52Who was that?
00:12:54Who was what?
00:12:56The man that we saw walking outside the house.
00:13:00Oh, him. Just someone who was lost, I guess.
00:13:04I was going to help him, but he disappeared before I got down there.
00:13:08He disappeared?
00:13:11It looked like he was just standing still.
00:13:14I know, weird. But when I got down there, he was gone.
00:13:20Do you think maybe he could be our ghost?
00:13:23He's not a ghost, Mary.
00:13:25Okay, now look, I've got a lot of work left to do before bed.
00:13:30Do you mind?
00:13:35Don't be too late.
00:13:37I'll try.
00:13:40Please close the door behind you when you leave.
00:13:42Bye.
00:13:55Bye.
00:13:55Bye.
00:13:58Bye.
00:16:30Why did you let me sleep?
00:16:32It's late.
00:16:35What were you doing outside in the dark?
00:16:38Oh, I was just getting some fresh air is all.
00:16:43Without your shoes?
00:16:44Oh, I must have forgotten him.
00:16:52Why are you so jumpy?
00:16:56I'm just tired, so...
00:16:58Right.
00:17:01Well, I'm off to bed.
00:17:05Care to join me?
00:17:09What's wrong?
00:17:09Is it that man from earlier?
00:17:11I was so eager to see it.
00:17:15I actually thought it was you.
00:17:20I'm no ghost, Mary.
00:17:22Although if I don't get some sleep soon,
00:17:25I'll be as useless as one in the morning.
00:17:27I'm fin tuning in.
00:17:29To be the wife and I stand still playing in the next
00:17:32place, man...
00:17:33Yeah, I'm just dead.
00:17:33I'm...
00:17:34Wow.
00:17:36Right.
00:17:36I'm not going to do this.
00:17:37I'm going to go to bed.
00:17:38I'm so sorry.
00:17:39I'm going to go into my chair.
00:17:40I'm so sorry.
00:17:41I'm gonna be aunter.
00:17:42And I'm out.
00:17:43So far...
00:17:44Well I'm just going to go inside.
00:17:46Oh, by the way, my sister's coming over today.
00:18:01Great.
00:18:04Is that sarcasm?
00:18:06No.
00:18:07No, I love Trina.
00:18:08It's just, I'm not sure the feeling's mutual.
00:18:12She's just overprotected.
00:18:14We took baths together until you were nine.
00:18:22Oh, hey Trina.
00:18:24Do let yourself in.
00:18:25Door's open.
00:18:26Here's the mail.
00:18:28Ah, checking the mail now.
00:18:30How thoughtful.
00:18:32We have dinner with the Royals tonight.
00:18:34What time?
00:18:357.30, and you cannot be late this time.
00:18:38Got it.
00:18:40Sorry Trina, party of four.
00:18:43That's alright.
00:18:44Everyone in this neighborhood is super pretentious anyway.
00:18:48Hey, any luck finding that ghost of yours?
00:18:52No.
00:18:53Wait.
00:18:54You're not a ghost, are you?
00:18:56Afraid not.
00:18:58Darn.
00:19:00And that's my cue.
00:19:02I gotta go.
00:19:03I'm late.
00:19:04I'll see you tonight.
00:19:05Call me.
00:19:06Love you.
00:19:07Love you too.
00:19:08Be nice.
00:19:09Always.
00:19:127.30.
00:19:13Got it.
00:19:17So, you give up yet or what?
00:19:21On what?
00:19:23Finding your ghost.
00:19:25I don't know.
00:19:26I thought maybe I saw something last night.
00:19:31Like what?
00:19:32You're gonna think it's stupid.
00:19:35Just tell me.
00:19:38Ned and I saw a man walking outside by the house.
00:19:42Okay.
00:19:43So Ned ran out to question him.
00:19:46But by the time I ran back inside, he was already upstairs working in the office.
00:19:51I mean, you know my brother.
00:19:53He works all the time.
00:19:54Yeah, but it took me maybe all of five minutes to come back and find him there.
00:19:59He couldn't have gotten outside and back in in that short amount of time.
00:20:03Maybe he never went.
00:20:04Maybe he was too chicken shit.
00:20:08Why would he lie?
00:20:10I don't know.
00:20:12What I do know is that my brother's never been known for being overly brave.
00:20:15He probably just didn't want to worry you is all.
00:20:18Hey, I'm gonna go into town after I shower.
00:20:20Do you need anything?
00:20:22No.
00:20:23Okay.
00:20:33Okay.
00:20:34Hold,.
00:20:35Come on, go inside.
00:23:30Mary, I can explain.
00:23:34Royals came over at 7 for cocktails.
00:23:38Made it over an hour for you.
00:23:41Turkey was cold, so I tossed it.
00:23:43You know how work can be.
00:23:50You didn't call.
00:23:52I know.
00:23:53I'm sorry.
00:23:54I forgot.
00:23:55I got busy.
00:23:56You know, I looked at my watch.
00:23:57It was 8 o'clock before I knew...
00:23:58He had your face, Ned.
00:24:03What?
00:24:04The night when I fell asleep on the patio.
00:24:06Mary.
00:24:08You're just angry.
00:24:10I saw him when I went outside.
00:24:13I saw his face and he saw mine.
00:24:15You were probably dreaming.
00:24:17You just said yourself you fell asleep.
00:24:19Your sister told me you were a coward, Ned.
00:24:22This is about your shit again, isn't it, huh?
00:24:32About your ghost?
00:24:33You're upset because you didn't find your ghost because you want to feel special?
00:24:36Huh?
00:24:37You don't feel special enough that I'm out working all day long so you can live in a big-ass house like this.
00:24:41Who is Henry Elwell?
00:24:52Where did you hear that name?
00:24:56He sent a letter.
00:24:57A letter?
00:24:58Yeah.
00:25:00You two must know one another.
00:25:04Did you read it?
00:25:11I googled him.
00:25:36There's an article in the Sentinel.
00:25:38A man named Elwell has brought a suit against you.
00:25:41There's something wrong with a blue mine stock.
00:25:45Mary, please.
00:25:47Did you ruin that man's life?
00:25:49Where did you hear that?
00:25:51That's what the article said, Ned.
00:25:53This letter is from a lawyer saying they're suing you for a crime.
00:25:58You knew about this?
00:26:02I deserve an answer.
00:26:03Of course I knew about it.
00:26:05But it's nothing.
00:26:07Nothing?
00:26:08They sent a letter.
00:26:09They must feel they have grounds.
00:26:10Are you sure you really want to hear this?
00:26:12Because it's not particularly interesting.
00:26:14It's a simple financial squabble over interest in the blue star of mine stock.
00:26:20What happened?
00:26:24Elwell was put onto the stock.
00:26:26I told you about him at the time.
00:26:27He was down on his luck and I was just trying to help him out.
00:26:30If you were trying to help him, then why the lawsuit?
00:26:35Read the letter.
00:26:36He probably hooked up with some shyster lawyer who put him up to it.
00:26:40It's all pretty technical and complicated.
00:26:42You wouldn't understand because you're not in the field.
00:26:43So it doesn't worry you at all that we could lose the house, that we could lose everything?
00:26:53We're not going to lose the house.
00:26:55I didn't mention it in the beginning because it did worry me.
00:26:58But it's all ancient history now.
00:27:03So he lost the case?
00:27:05The lawsuit has been withdrawn.
00:27:08Withdrawn?
00:27:09What does that mean, withdrawn?
00:27:10Because he doesn't have a leg to stand on or what?
00:27:12Exactly.
00:27:19How long ago did this happen?
00:27:22Elwell came around about a year ago.
00:27:25We knew about the lawsuit shortly after he lost his interest in the stock.
00:27:28And we've known about the withdrawal for a while now as well.
00:27:31A while?
00:27:32A couple of weeks.
00:27:35So then there's nothing to worry about?
00:27:39That's what I'm trying to tell you.
00:27:41Look at you.
00:27:42You get all worked up.
00:27:43That's why I didn't mention it.
00:27:47I should have called you tonight.
00:27:49I'm sorry.
00:27:54It's just that and then this letter shows up.
00:27:59I was worried.
00:28:01You don't have anything to worry about.
00:28:03Let me make it up to you.
00:28:07I'll make you some pancakes.
00:28:08I'll make you some pancakes.
00:28:09Thanks.
00:28:09Thanks.
00:28:09I don't know.
00:28:39Oh, my God.
00:29:09Oh, my God.
00:29:39Oh, my God.
00:30:09Oh, my God.
00:30:39Oh, my God.
00:31:09Oh, my God.
00:31:39Oh, my God.
00:32:09Oh, my God.
00:32:39Oh, my God.
00:33:09Oh, my God.
00:33:39I woke up, and you were gone.
00:33:41I went to look for you.
00:33:42What are you doing out of bed?
00:33:44I...
00:33:44I thought I heard something.
00:33:47Did you find anything?
00:33:50No.
00:33:51It's late.
00:33:52It's late.
00:33:52Come on, let's get some sleep.

00:40:29He's always wearing a hat, but he wears it backwards, and he's over 25,
00:40:33so it's kind of weird and makes people uncomfortable, but...
00:40:36I know he works with a lot of guys, but how many of them come to the house looking for him?
00:40:43Oh, shit.

00:41:24Trina?
00:41:25Trina, are you here?
00:41:31Trina?
00:42:04Hello.
00:42:34Hello?
00:42:35Did you call me?
00:42:44Jesus, what is it with you and your brother sneaking up on people?
00:43:03It's a gift.
00:43:04Or a curse.
00:43:05What's that supposed to mean?
00:43:08Nothing.
00:43:09I thought I heard something in here is all.
00:43:12What'd you find?
00:43:14Nothing.
00:43:15Forget it.
00:43:16What time is it?
00:43:18Has Ned called?
00:43:19It's almost 6.
00:43:20I'm headed back.
00:43:21Are you sure everything's okay?
00:43:23I can stay if you need me to.
00:43:27No.
00:43:28Don't be silly.
00:43:29I still need to get dressed and start making dinner before Ned gets home.
00:43:34Alright.
00:43:35Well, go dry off.
00:43:37You're making streaks on your floor.
00:44:02Voicemail, again.
00:44:32It's late, and I'm starting to worry.
00:44:35Your office is closed, so no one's getting back to me,
00:44:38and you're not picking up your cell.
00:44:42Just call me back.
00:44:44Just let me know you're okay.
00:45:02Let's go.
00:45:30Just let me know you're okay.
00:45:42Just let me know you're okay.
00:45:54Just let me know you're okay.
00:46:06Just let me know you're okay.
00:46:22Just let me know you're okay.
00:46:38Just let me know you're okay.
00:46:54Just let me know you're okay.
00:47:06Just let me know you're okay.
00:47:10Just let me know you're okay.
00:47:26Just let me know you're okay.
00:47:46What time would you say you heard the first noise?
00:47:50Uh, nine o'clock?
00:47:52Maybe 9.30?
00:47:54It was around the time I called that cell.
00:47:56And then you followed the noise upstairs?
00:47:58Well, the plates came first, but then, yes,
00:48:00a book just flew out of my husband's office.
00:48:03What book?
00:48:04I don't know what book.
00:48:06I don't know what book.
00:48:07A book.
00:48:08What difference does it make?
00:48:09Look, I know it sounds crazy, but I saw it with my own eyes.
00:48:14Where's your husband at now?
00:48:16Uh, I don't know where my husband is.
00:48:19He didn't come home last night.
00:48:21What?
00:48:22Is it normal for your husband not to return at night?
00:48:25No.
00:48:26It's never happened before.
00:48:27Absolutely not.
00:48:28If you don't mind, I'd like her to answer the questions.
00:48:31And you didn't call the police?
00:48:32The police are here now, aren't they?
00:48:34He could be hurt or worse.
00:48:37Have you tried to make contact with your husband since last night?
00:48:40Yes, of course.
00:48:41I called his cell.
00:48:42I called his office.
00:48:43Nothing.
00:48:44How many times have you called?
00:48:46A dozen times, maybe more.
00:48:48I called all morning.
00:48:52What time is this office open for business?
00:48:54In an hour.
00:48:56Okay.
00:48:57Give me the address.
00:48:58I'll go by there.
00:48:59Make sure your husband's doing okay.
00:49:00Okay.
00:49:01Why would he just not come home like that?
00:49:03Jesus, Trina.
00:49:04I don't know.
00:49:05It can be anything, really.
00:49:07Some men stay at the office just to stay away.
00:49:11And some are having affairs and lose track of time.
00:49:15That's not cheating on me.
00:49:17Are you sure?
00:49:19I want you to be open-minded so you won't be shocked.
00:49:22In case, sir, I don't know what your husband's been doing.
00:49:25What do you mean, shocked?
00:49:28Lots of people leave secret lives.
00:49:31I see it all the time.
00:49:32I want you to be prepared for that fact.
00:49:35But in the meantime, just take a shower.
00:49:38Put some food in your stomach.
00:49:40No one's been hurt.
00:49:41There's no sign of forced entry or struggle.
00:49:43This could be nothing more than your ghost appearing.
00:49:46Your sister-in-law mentioned that you hadn't seen yours yet.
00:49:50What about you, officer?
00:49:52Our ghost?
00:49:53Mr. Green?
00:49:55He moved things around, turns his lights on and off.
00:49:58Kids can't get enough of him.
00:50:00Thank you, officer, for your help.
00:50:02I appreciate it.
00:50:03I'll be in touch.
00:50:05And like I said, good medicine.
00:50:08Before I leave, I want to look around the property,
00:50:10make sure it is okay and check things out.
00:50:22You're mad.
00:50:24A little.
00:50:25You didn't mention my brother was missing.
00:50:27It hasn't been 48 hours yet.
00:50:30Still.
00:50:31God, this is just the push you needed, isn't it?
00:50:34What's that supposed to mean?
00:50:36Now you can completely hate me.
00:50:39I never hated you, Mary.
00:50:42I just never liked you as much as Ned did.
00:50:44And I never held it over you.
00:50:46You did that to yourself.
00:50:47Oh, really?
00:50:48The little remarks?
00:50:49The coming over whenever you feel like it?
00:50:51The checking in on your brother like he's living with someone on parole?
00:50:55I come by because Ned invites me,
00:50:57not because I give a shit about you or your relationship.
00:51:00But maybe I should because you just let him go missing without fucking telling anyone!
00:51:05Please leave.
00:51:11Excuse me?
00:51:12I asked you to please leave.
00:51:17He may be your brother, but this is our house.
00:51:23Get out!
00:51:24Congratulations.
00:51:28Looks like you finally found your fucking ghost.
00:51:54You can get your girlfriend.
00:51:56I know.
00:51:57I will be your sister.
00:51:58I know.
00:51:59I think you're going to show my girlfriend.
00:52:00You can try maybe a girl.
00:52:01I only love you.
00:52:02I'm sorry.
00:52:03I don't know.
00:52:04I'm sorry.
00:52:05I'm sorry.
00:52:06I don't want you to see my girlfriend.
00:52:07I know.
00:52:08I know.
00:52:09I know she's in the middle of you.
00:52:10I know.
00:52:11I know that you're today.
00:52:12I know she's in her place.
00:52:13I know she's in her house.
00:52:14And I know, she's in her house.
00:52:15She wants her to make her place.
00:52:17All right, I'm going to get back to the office, but I'll call you
00:52:46when I know something.
00:52:48Just stay calm.
00:52:49I'm going to do my best to find your husband.
00:52:52Stay by your phone.
00:52:54I'll be in touch.
00:53:39Morning, neighbor.
00:53:56Hi, Patrice.
00:53:57Now's really not a good time.
00:53:58Well, this won't take long.
00:54:00I don't know if you and Ned are free tonight, but we're having a few people over for dinner.
00:54:04I know it's short notice.
00:54:06Ned hasn't come home, actually.
00:54:08Oh?
00:54:09Is he all right?
00:54:11Is everything all right?
00:54:12I saw the police car, but I didn't think it was my place to ask questions.
00:54:15Honestly, I don't know.
00:54:18The police said he could be cheating.
00:54:20Ned?
00:54:22Yeah.
00:54:22Listen, Patrice, when was the last time you saw Ned?
00:54:25Oh, it was yesterday morning.
00:54:26It was early because I was out early to let my pibbles out to use the bathroom before we went for a walk,
00:54:31and I saw him pulling out of the driveway.
00:54:33That's all you remember?
00:54:35Well, it was early, like I said.
00:54:37I mean, he was backing out of the drive.
00:54:39I didn't think nothing about it.
00:54:41Although, I did think it was a little bit strange that he had someone in the car with him in the passenger seat.
00:54:47He did?
00:54:48Who was it?
00:54:49What did he look like?
00:54:50I couldn't say.
00:54:52Patrice, think.
00:54:53Please, anything you can remember.
00:54:55He was younger than Ned, and maybe had a hat on.
00:55:00A hat?
00:55:01Like a ball cap.
00:55:04Are you all right, dear?
00:55:05I have to go, Patrice.
00:55:06Thank you for telling me, really.
00:55:07We'll do dinner another night.
00:55:08I don't understand.
00:55:31Shortly after we moved in here, Ned and I were sitting out on the patio.
00:55:35We were looking out into the valley, and we saw a man.
00:55:38He was standing out by the trees.
00:55:40He was young.
00:55:40He was wearing a ball cap.
00:55:42Ned ran out to find him, but I don't think he ever actually left the house.
00:55:47Why not?
00:55:48Because when I came in, I came right back here to the office, and Ned was already here.
00:55:52My husband's fast, but no one's that fast.
00:55:54All right.
00:55:55So then shortly after that, we get this letter.
00:55:58It's the first time I hear the name Henry Elwell.
00:56:00Husband was keeping this from you.
00:56:02Yeah, he never told me about the lawsuit.
00:56:05When I asked him about it, he said it wasn't a big deal.
00:56:07Said that it had been withdrawn, and that Elwell didn't have a leg to stand on.
00:56:12So what was the lawsuit about?
00:56:14Some stock that never panned out.
00:56:16Well, apparently Elwell lost a fortune.
00:56:19But so then, right out of the blue, this man comes to the house looking for Ned, which never
00:56:23happened before.
00:56:23It's never happened before.
00:56:25He said he had business with him, and that he needed to speak with him.
00:56:29He's never had a client come to the house before.
00:56:33So what was the name of this visitor?
00:56:35Hank.
00:56:37Hank?
00:56:39As in short for Henry?
00:56:45Yes.
00:56:46Yes, I think that man was actually Henry Elwell looking for Ned.
00:56:51The morning he went missing, my neighbor said that she saw him leaving for work early,
00:56:55and that she had a passenger in the car with him.
00:56:57He was wearing a bald cap.
00:56:59The man in the valley was wearing a bald cap.
00:57:01This cannot just be a giant coincidence.
00:57:05Okay.
00:57:06What else did this Hank say to you?
00:57:07Just that he was looking for Ned, and I told him that he wasn't here.
00:57:14He said he'd try him another time.
00:57:16What?
00:57:17What?
00:57:21What aren't you telling me?
00:57:24I stopped by your husband's office after I left you this morning.
00:57:28They haven't seen him either.
00:57:30No one's seen or heard from him in two days.
00:57:32Okay.
00:57:41Okay.
00:57:43Well, you can get this Henry Elwell.
00:57:46You can bring him in for questioning, right?
00:57:48He's got to know something.
00:57:50How exactly would I get a hold of him?
00:57:52I don't know.
00:57:53You're the police.
00:57:53That's your job, isn't it?
00:57:56Uh, Mary, have you thought perhaps your husband wanted out of this marriage?
00:58:01What?
00:58:02No.
00:58:03Absolutely not.
00:58:05Well, typically you wouldn't really know until one morning you wake up and your spouse is gone.
00:58:10Henry Elwell has kidnapped my husband.
00:58:13But we don't have evidence of that.
00:58:14I just told you the evidence.
00:58:17Do your fucking job.
00:58:19Evidence?
00:58:20What evidence?
00:58:22You've got a type letter detailing a withdrawn lawsuit.
00:58:26It's no signature, so we can't trace the handwriting.
00:58:29You've got a man in the valley with a ball cap, but no other description.
00:58:33You've got a neighbor who may or may not have seen your husband leave with a man in the cap before sunrise.
00:58:39Oh, and then you've got Henry Elwell coming to visit you.
00:58:43Do you see what I'm getting at here?
00:58:45Look, your husband is missing.
00:58:48We don't know why.
00:58:49We may not never know until he returns.
00:58:51You understand?
00:58:54Now, as crazy as it may sound, you mentioned that you haven't seen your ghost yet.
00:59:00People around here take that shit serious.
00:59:05Have you thought that maybe this person can visit you, this Hank from the valley, that he might be, in fact, your ghost?
00:59:12Maybe that's why you think they're the same person.
00:59:18Okay, listen, Adam.
00:59:22We're gonna put this up around town.
00:59:25Maybe someone see where your husband's gone off to.
00:59:27Not to take matters into your own hands.
00:59:33Let us do the job that we're paid to do.
00:59:36Okay?
00:59:37Okay.
00:59:37Okay?
00:59:47Okay.
00:59:47Okay.
00:59:48Okay.
00:59:56Okay.
01:00:00Okay.
01:00:01Don't worry, I'm not staying.
01:00:15He's not coming back, is he?
01:00:22I don't know.
01:00:24Mom is freaking out.
01:00:27Aunt Hilde can't stop conspiring long enough to start freaking out.
01:00:33It's just a fucking mess.
01:00:37I think it was my fault.
01:00:40I know it.
01:00:46Ned's a big boy.
01:00:49Don't give up on him just yet.
01:00:57Don't give up on him.
01:01:03I'm sorry.
01:01:05I'm sorry.
01:01:07I'm sorry.
01:01:09I'm sorry.
01:01:11I'm sorry.
01:01:13I'm sorry.
01:01:15I'm sorry.
01:01:17I'm sorry.
01:01:33I don't know.
01:02:03I didn't mean to startle you.
01:02:25Really, I'm not here to hurt you.
01:02:30Henry Elwell?
01:02:33My friends call me Hank.
01:02:36Please.
01:02:37That's not necessary.
01:02:44You're dead.
01:02:49I read the letter you sent.
01:02:53Then you know that what you hold in your hand is useless.
01:02:58How do I know that?
01:03:00I don't know anything anymore.
01:03:02If you throw it, it'll pass right through me.
01:03:09You're a ghost, aren't you?
01:03:15I'm someone's ghost, but not yours.
01:03:22Then why are you here?
01:03:24What did you do to Ned?
01:03:26I like this room.
01:03:31It reminds me of the place where you wait.
01:03:35Wait for what?
01:03:38To be chosen.
01:03:40We all have to wait.
01:03:42We're all eventually bound to something, whether we like it or not.
01:03:49What did you do to my husband?
01:03:52We saw you on the field.
01:03:54I saw your face.
01:03:55I know it was you.
01:03:56I will never know what became of Ned.
01:03:59No one will ever know.
01:04:01Except this house.
01:04:04The house will know.
01:04:06The books will know.
01:04:09Because they were here when that last scene was played.
01:04:12When I showed up in the valley and caused Ned to follow me out.
01:04:16The floor you walk on dealt his steps.
01:04:19The chair saw his face.
01:04:23You're lying.
01:04:26You saw his face.
01:04:28You were in the car when he drove off.
01:04:30I am a messenger.
01:04:32I did not curate the message.
01:04:34Your husband spent a lifetime making money off the ignorance of others.
01:04:39At the expense of his clients and their misguided trust in him.
01:04:42He spoke with such a conviction that even I was swung by him.
01:04:46I lost everything.
01:04:48I lost...
01:04:51I lost the woman that I love.
01:04:55Mr. Boyne made his money on the speculation.
01:04:58Some would say the brilliant speculation of the blue star stock.
01:05:01At the cost of someone less alert.
01:05:04The victim of Mr. Boyne's ingenuity was me.
01:05:08I wasn't smart enough.
01:05:10That's all.
01:05:11If I had been, maybe he would have turned around and served him the same way.
01:05:15It's the kind of thing that happens every day in business.
01:05:19I guess that's what they call the survival of the fittest.
01:05:23Cain and Abel.
01:05:25A...
01:05:26A cult in the stable.
01:05:32You...
01:05:33You took your own life because of what he did?
01:05:36He ruined my life.
01:05:38Yes.
01:05:39And you killed him.
01:05:42He's dead, isn't he?
01:05:44No.
01:05:45You see, I borrowed most of the money that I lost in the blue star, so I was up a tree.
01:05:50That's why when they told me that I lost everything, I shot myself.
01:05:54No.
01:05:59I don't believe you.
01:06:00I know my husband.
01:06:01He wouldn't hurt anyone.
01:06:02Do you?
01:06:03I mean, do you really know Ned Boyne?
01:06:06I was sent here to this house the night you saw me in the field.
01:06:10Ned, he never came down to find me.
01:06:12Instead, he ran in here in an attempt to hide the evidence of what he'd done.
01:06:16You stood in that doorway and he lied to you.
01:06:19He lied to your face because that was his gift.
01:06:21He lied with such special skill.
01:06:23When I came to you in the garden, it was meant as a final warning from the ones who place us.
01:06:28Yet he still continued to lie, continued to use others for his own gain until I took a ride with him that morning.
01:06:37The last time anyone saw your husband was the most honest he had ever been in his entire life.
01:06:46Seeing your end will do that to you.
01:06:53What?
01:06:56Where did you go after you drove off?
01:07:04He was offered another chance.
01:07:07But he refused.
01:07:08He couldn't bear it.
01:07:10The thought of self-exposure, even if it meant the opportunity to save you.
01:07:20Did you know he kept it in the glove compartment?
01:07:24What?
01:07:25The .22 caliber pistol.
01:07:30He told me it was a wedding gift.
01:07:44Mrs. Boyne.
01:07:46Mrs. Boyne, you are not well.
01:07:48Shall I call somebody?
01:07:51Would you like a glass of water?
01:07:57He's dead.
01:08:04He's waiting now.
01:08:07Just like the rest of us.
01:08:11I'll be going now.
01:08:13You're not married.
01:08:14Wait.
01:08:16Wait.
01:08:17When will I see him again?
01:08:21I'm not sure.
01:08:23Perhaps never.
01:08:27Depends on where he ends up.
01:08:28The story goes that once you move in, you're visited by a spirit.
01:08:44Your ghost.
01:08:45And then once you see it, it remains in the house forever.
01:08:47Mary.
01:09:05Stand up.
01:09:09Okay.
01:09:11Okay.
01:09:18You're not really either.
01:09:20You're dead.
01:09:22Yeah.
01:09:24How could you do this to me?
01:09:26To us?
01:09:29I left you.
01:09:32I'm so sorry.
01:09:34I was an awful person.
01:09:39I hurt you more than I ever even knew possible.
01:09:42Go.
01:09:44I don't...
01:09:45I don't understand.
01:09:47Why?
01:09:51All I need you to understand is that I'm gonna miss you more than anything in the world.
01:09:58Your face every morning.
01:10:01The way your smile lit up a room.
01:10:05The way you laugh.
01:10:06I didn't deserve you.
01:10:10I didn't deserve you.
01:10:13But I did love you.
01:10:17And I will always love you.
01:10:20Wait.
01:10:21Don't go.
01:10:22Not yet.
01:10:23Please.
01:10:27I'm not your ghost.
01:10:37Oh, my God.
01:10:41For the world.
01:10:43I'm sorry.
01:10:45I'm sorry!
01:10:47Mrs. Boyne?
01:10:50Mrs. Boyne?
01:10:53Mrs. Boyne?
01:10:56Mary.
01:10:57Please.
01:10:59Mary!
01:11:01It's important that you not give up.
01:11:02I'll keep looking for your husband
01:11:04unless you tell me otherwise.
01:11:09He's never coming back.
01:11:12Do you know this for a fact?
01:11:14In my line of work, we tend to deal on absolutes.
01:11:19Thank you, officer, but I...
01:11:21I don't think you need to come back here again.
01:11:25I'm gonna ask, do you have any idea where it could be?
01:11:31He's waiting.
01:11:41It's a beautiful property.
01:11:44I know you're gonna miss it when you go.
01:11:51I never went past the garden.
01:11:53Really? Why is that?
01:11:56I don't like open spaces.
01:12:02We always have to leave,
01:12:05but we can't stay in a place they want you to go.
01:12:11Those meaning he's sorry.
01:12:13What?
01:12:15Tulips.
01:12:16Mary!
01:12:25Hey!
01:12:26This it?
01:12:27Yeah.
01:12:28What's that?
01:12:29Alright.
01:12:30I'll take it out and wait in the truck.
01:12:33Okay.
01:12:34Hey.
01:12:35You okay?
01:12:36Yeah.
01:12:37I'm fine.
01:12:38You don't have to be okay if you don't want to.
01:12:41You know that, yeah?
01:12:42Yeah.
01:12:43Yeah, I know.
01:12:44I know.
01:12:45I think I'm okay.
01:12:46Good.
01:12:47I'll shake a leg.
01:12:48Okay.
01:12:50I'll meet you out there.
01:12:51Alrighty.
01:12:52Alrighty.
01:12:53Bye.
01:12:54I'll meet you out there.
01:12:55I'm fine at the front.
01:12:56I'm fine at the back.
01:12:57I love you.
01:12:58You don't have to be okay if you don't want to.
01:12:59You know that, yeah?
01:13:00Yeah, I know.
01:13:01I think I'm okay.
01:13:02Good.
01:13:03I'll shake a leg.
01:13:04Alright.
01:13:07I'll meet you out there.
01:13:09Alrighty.
01:13:35I'll meet you out there.
01:14:03Okay, I think you'll really like this place.
01:14:07Come on in.
01:14:09Oh, wow.
01:14:11It's great, isn't it?
01:14:13Yeah.
01:14:15So the previous owners just moved back east,
01:14:17so this place is a hot commodity, to say the least.
01:14:19We have the original hardwood floors,
01:14:21the updates throughout.
01:14:23I mean, this view. You move in, you're pretty much
01:14:25upper class by the end of the week.
01:14:27And then, of course, there's the folklore that comes along
01:14:29with the estate.
01:14:30The ghost, right?
01:14:32That's right. Everyone in the area has one.
01:14:34Well, that's what we heard. Is it true?
01:14:36From what I've heard, it is.
01:14:38I just think that's so cool.
01:14:40Come over here. Let's take a look.
01:14:42Hmm, it's them.
01:14:56Hmm, that is them. They must have left that behind.
01:15:02Well, I don't think we need to see anything else.
01:15:08We'll take it.
01:15:09Terrific. Follow me out.
01:15:10We can draw off the papers.
01:15:12Of course.
01:15:14It's so cool.
01:15:16Yeah.
01:15:18Well, thank you.
01:15:22We're going down.
01:15:24We'll check it out.
01:15:25Thanks, contracts.
01:15:26Thanks,ges.
01:15:28Thanks.
01:15:30Bell ringing aloud
01:15:49But I'll never get myself out
01:15:57It's only a lifetime, we can't wait
01:16:03Drown at the sound until it's too late
01:16:09But don't be proud
01:16:14Boat hunting you down
01:16:19You hide in the alleys but it finds you out
01:16:26Covered in crimson heads
01:16:32You live for the chase but you act like you don't
01:16:38So don't be proud
01:16:44Don't be proud
01:16:50You got lost in that life
01:16:56In that life
01:17:04So grit your teeth and twist the knife
01:17:08And twist the knife
01:17:16Let me slide
01:17:26Bell ringing aloud
01:17:32Bell ringing aloud
