The haunted café is thriving, the ghost sponge cake has become a town legend - and for the first time in decades, Bernard, the ghostly baker, finally feels at home.
But behind the clink of teacups and the laughter of regulars lies something more:
an old, hidden menu Bernard himself doesn't fully remember. Recipes whispered in flour dust and moonlight, pastries that shimmer with faint magic... and secrets that could change everything Maya, Elijah, and Muffin think they know about their café - and Bernard's past.
When new faces appear - a wandering recipe collector, a mischievous spirit with unfinished business, and a rival café owner hunting for magical dishes - the team must unlock the hidden power of the Secret Menu to protect the place they've built together.
With midnight baking mishaps, magical treats that do more than just taste sweet, and unexpected moments of warmth and wonder,
Spirited Scones: The Secret Menu serves up another season of cozy chaos, found family, and ghostly delight.

Road to Night Café
When psychiatrist Dr. Lucian Harlow begins treating patients who share the same recurring dream - a glowing café where no one speaks and time stands still - he's forced to confront his own forgotten past. He's seen that place before. He just doesn't remember when. Full Synopsis: After a near-fatal childhood accident, Lucian Harlow grew up chasing logic and reason - building a career to silence the chaos of his early visions. But when a series of patients begin describing an identical dream - a café bathed in flickering crimson light, filled with unmoving figures - Lucian's scientific certainty begins to crack. As he unravels the link between his patients, their dreams, and his own forgotten trauma, he discovers traces of a hidden group of dark smiths - people capable of entering and manipulating the dreams of others. Each session pulls him deeper into their world, and closer to the truth buried in his own mind. Somewhere beyond sleep, the Night Café waits - a place for the lost, the guilty, and the damned. And the road back there has already begun.
