Though disappointed in the change of plans, it gives her a chance to check out her newest investment, a fixer-upper she's purchased in partnership with her handyman, Dave, and her sister, Cat. Their first visit to the house, however, has them running for cover. Tools and hardware begin flying around, imbedding themselves in the wall, and Abby and Dutch see the body of a young woman lying at the bottom of the basement stairs; but the young woman disappears before they can call the cops.

Dave is determined to never enter the premises again unless the ghosts are exorcised.
