Synopsis[]
Andrea and Melinda are contracted to auction furniture from a community inn before it is torn down. While cleaning the basement Melinda finds the lost spirits of three boys and their dog that perished in an orphanage fire 50 years ago. Melinda tries to help the boys pass on before the inn is destroyed by a moody multimillionaire. In the end, we learn that this man also lived at the orphanage and that, though he was presumed dead, his body was never found. But in fact, he was the only one that escaped from the fire and wanted to get rid of the bad memories.
