The house is haunted by the ghost of Sir Simon, who killed his wife there in 1575.Otis's housekeeper claims that the blood stain in the living room dates back to the day of the murder.

Later, it's revealed that the ghost used Virginia Otis's paints to recreate the stain.Virginia chastises Sir Simon for stealing the paints, but after talking to him agrees to help him leave the house and travel to another dimension. Virginia returns from their journey unharmed.
