Once Upon A Time...

For centuries, the Theerapanyakul estate had been quiet and empty, filled only with cursed ghosts stuck between life and death, including Vegas, who had long stopped expecting anything new.

Then Pete appeared.
A stubborn, loud, overly cheerful human who could see ghosts like it was the most normal thing in the world. The same ability that got him abandoned by his parents now made him walk through life surrounded by things no one else could see.

Pete didn't fear them. He complained at them. He argued with them. He treated ghosts like annoying roommates he never agreed to live with.

Vegas first met him by accident and immediately, Pete snapped at him like he was just another problem in the way.

For Vegas, who had lived centuries in silence, Pete was... noise. Bright, irritating, alive noise.

But somehow, that noise made the world feel less empty.
And for the first time in a very long while, the cursed dead found something worth noticing again.
