    To distract Jodi from her grief, the two friends tell each other ghost stories as they explore the museum.

While reading the woman’s story, Jodi hears her daughter’s voice. 
     
    As Jodi desperately searches the garden, it becomes apparent that Ella isn’t the only ghost they’ve awakened. Something ancient with a slow, shuffling step lurks in the shadows
