Years later, the girl makes a life-changing decision to move into a dilapidated Victorian house from the 1800s. What begins as a house flip with her consort, an Old-World builder with an artisan's soul and a legacy to fulfill, becomes an ambitious renovation project. Hidden beneath layers of peeling paint and decades of neglect lies something far more profound—a strange portal embedded in the very essence of the Victorian connecting this world to the Other Side. To her astonishment, the portal leads spirits directly into the home's speakeasy bar reminiscent of that era, where they gather to share their tales and wisdom with the girl, the barkeep. Spirits that step forward to reveal life's mysteries are far from silent. From the ghost of a tycoon to cherished pets, their stories cover a wide range of time, emotion, and intrigue.
