Her demise sets off a new flurry of gossip and ghostly speculation in the New Jersey town, of course and it's tempting to think spirits were indeed involved considering there's zero evidence so far of foul play. A nosy neighbor reports strange lights and sounds, and a man obsessed with the Victorian era starts photographing the place from the street. But it won't take long before Pamela and Bettina are moving in on a killer"--
