Zenobia Bellairs disappeared seven years ago, and her heir has been unable to sell her house due its cursed reputation. Teenagers frequently visit the house to play ding-dong-ditch, but every time the doorbell rings, it seems to be answered by the ringing of dozens of clocks. Nobody wants to purchase the house, and the hunters have been asked to investigate and determine if there really are any haunting creatures.

You take on the role of a supernatural investigator… perhaps even supernatural yourself. Alongside your team, you’ll uncover the truth and put a stop to the threat.
