Jessie, Specs and Tucker went to Elise's house. Tucker grabbed a framed photo and looked at it.
"You'd think all the ghosts we've seen would make me feel better that Elise is gone. I mean, we have first hand knowledge that there's something out there beyond death. It's not helping" Specs said. Jessie could feel him squeezing her hand but she didn't mind.
"Turns out the living version of someone is always better" Tucker said. Just then, the sound of a creaking door filled the silence. The three of them looked to see that the door to Elise's reading room opened.
"She never left the reading room unlocked" The three of them approached the room, only to find that there were a set of stairs. They all looked down the stairs, but all they could see was darkness.
"You two go first" Tucker said. Specs glanced towards the dark room.
"Hunter. Ninja. Bear" he said. Specs and Tucker faced each other while Jessie stood off to the side, watching them with an amused smirk.
"Hunter. Ninja. Bear" they chanted, and did their actions. Specs chose bear while Tucker chose ninja.
"That's bullshit" Tucker said. He began descending down the stairs. "How does a bear beat a goddamn ninja?"
"Superior sense of smell, my friend" Specs said. He grabbed Jessie's hand and they followed Tucker down the stairs.
"Hunter ninja bear?" Jessie whispered to Specs.
"It's our version of rock paper scissors" he replied. They entered Elise's reading room. "You know, I don't think we should be down here" Tucker turned on the tv that was in the room, with Specs turning it back off shortly after. Tucker entered the doorway to another room. "That's a private room, you should stay out of there" He then crashed into a bunch of VHS tapes.
"My nuts" Tucker groaned in pain. Jessie entered the room and helped Tucker pick up the various tapes while Specs stood in the doorway and watched them. Jessie had found one VHS tape that peaked her interest.
"Interesting" she mumbled to herself.
"What is it?" Tucker asked. She revealed the front of the tape to them which was labeled Lambert, Josh (1986).

In the reading room, they popped in the tape. The video was a bit grainy, but they could clearly make out the twelve year old Josh.
"Amateur framing. Just horrible" Tucker commented. Specs shushed him. They fast forwarded to tape to the point when Josh got up from his chair, and spoke to something that wasn't there. "Who the hell is he talking to?"
"Wait, pause it" Jessie asked. Tucker paused the tape. Considering the quality of the video, she could make out the shape of two figures in the room with Josh. "Look at that" She pointed to the two figures.
