But in the year since Ren last saw it, the Sea Mystic Motel has been falling apart. Ren always thought the place had “character,” but now it’s the sort of character you wouldn’t want to run into in a dark alley. And it comes as a bit of a shock when that character starts speaking to her through a crack in the wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWorried the motel is haunted, Ren, her gothy sister, and the ghost-hunting boy who lives across the street go digging for answers.
