The investigators track the realtor Vanessa Volker to her combined office and home late at night. After a tense confrontation at her door, she flees inside. A chase through the building ends with Carter grappling her, but she vomits a swarm of spiders on him and escapes by vaulting through a third-story window. Despite the fall, she gets up and runs to her car. Robin manages to jump into the moving vehicle's back seat and shoots Vanessa repeatedly in the head while she drives. She shows supernatural endurance, continuing to drive at high speed until the car crashes.
Simultaneously, inside the house, Kirby—apparently suffering a sanity break—finds Carter writhing from the spiders and, after offering false comfort, stabs him to death. Kirby then uses Carter's blood to perform a mysterious ritual, chanting and drawing symbols in an attempt to "fix" everything. Meanwhile, Angel, left outside, gets into a car with a driver named Ivan to pursue Vanessa's fleeing vehicle, setting up a continuing chase. The scenario highlights the investigators' desperation, Vanessa's unnatural powers, and the tragic consequences of creeping insanity.

Previously, while exploring the coop house, our team investigators found a secret door in the basement, which led to a mysterious chamber. Inside, they found the body of Lynn, their friend and producer of their TV show. After listening to an audio recording of their previous visit, they discovered the Vanessa Volker, the realtor, had locked them inside this chamber. The party then flee the house, being chased by some kind of unknown entity coming from the dark. After visiting the police station and the medical centre, we rejoin our investigators as they make their way to the house of the dastardly realtor, Vanessa Volker. Yeah, you make it to the realtor's. And like, God, likewise, one o'clock, two o'clock in the morning right now. And yeah, it's like a storefront, but with a house on top of it. Like it's kind of a cross-residential commercial place. And the realtor's itself is all shut up, but you can see that as a light on upstairs of the Volker realtor's. There's like a sort of side door from the main entrance, yeah, from the main office, or like a set of stairs, like metal staircase kind of going up the side of the building to the sort of front door of this kind of like three-story building that's on the main road going through Cleo. Yeah, I mean, I guess like as we get up to the top, I'll be like, "Can you give us like pick locks so do you need a bus to the door?" I can probably break it. As you think about that. Yeah. You're like, "You're pretty good at picking a lock." Am I? I've got a multi-tool. If you need it. Yeah, sure. I mean, I can try. Yeah, like, yeah, I don't know what it is. I actually, I know locksmith I don't have, but yeah, if you say I do. I have one. One of you is. So we just try ring the doorbell. One of you is good at lock pick. Yeah, fuck. Is it locksmith? Yeah, locksmith? No, not a. It's probably going to be just right ring in the doorbell, but I'm like, "It's got to be all done." I think this woman is trouble. I'm a 1%. That's the same. Quite of the 1% baby. I mean, I can't do that. It's a very good way. Let's. You want to try ringing it? Let's just ring the doorbell. Okay. Fuck it. All right. I position myself. Okay, so what you guys are all on this staircase? Underneath the rock, the real estate. And. Bing bong, bing bong, bing bong, bing bong, bing bong, bing bong. You hear like a voice like. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. I'm coming. Jesus Christ. So late at night. And there's like, shuffling around inside. And the door opens. And there's this. Like fairly, fairly pretty. A woman in her, like 30s. Wearing like a dressing gown. And her pajamas. She's got some slippers on. And she opens the door. Give me sanity rolls. Everyone loves a little bit of sanity. Oh no. Yes. Did you pass? I passed. Oh my god. Wait. Wait. Trock. That's a 10. 15. Yeah. And he's six. (all laughing) - No sign, if it was a five. - Yes, so happy. - Can you, it was six. - I failed. - That's a three, three, one that failed, one for everyone else. - So one of Kirby's on the edge of snapping. - You have this hard flash of, as she opens this door and you see this like smiling face, you can instantly picture the mirror image of that, of that smiling face closing a door on all of you, trapping you in a tunnel. And he's like, so late. What, can I help you all? 'Cause she's open the door fully, hasn't she? - Yeah, she's open to. - I make sure I put like my hands so that if she tries, and like my foot, so she tries to close the door. Oh, it's not gonna close. She looks at you, has the second of pause, and then goes to slam the door. And like her eyes go white and there's panic. - I'm just gonna show the barge and try and grab, like 'cause like she can't shut the door with things, so like I'm gonna lunge through, and I actually think I'm gonna try and grab it by the throat. - Oh yeah, great, make me a brawl roll. Give me a good, good bit of paul and. - That's, is this, can I, if I fail it, or is this an opposed roll? - This is an opposed roll. - A push in opposed roll? - No, you can't, sadly. - That. - I could spend all my luck. - She's just gonna drag dodge. Ooh, I got a 25. - No, I can't wait, I can really stop that. - So yeah, I, 95, thanks, you're not really badly. - Oh shoot, what is your, my brawl is 50. - Oh, okay, no, you're fine, wait, that might actually be a, a mechanical, critical fail. - Uh oh. - Wait, uh, fumble, no, you're fine. - Just. - You're actually fine. - So it's just a normal failure. - If it was a 96 you would have failed. - Oh wow. (laughing) You go to grab her, but like, lightning quick. Almost unnaturally quick. She pulls away from you and just, like runs into the house. - Runs in. - Yeah. - Is, I'm chasing after her. - Great, give me a constitution roll to see how good you are catching up with her. Oh my god, you, she is, what do you get? - I got 66. - Oh, she is. Boom, gone, like, she turns a corner and, like, as you get to that corner, suddenly like, you can't see her. There's doors open. There's like another corridor, a staircase going into the upflow. You have no idea. Exactly. - When we were coming into this building, we came up into like a side door. Did it look like there were any other exits? - Ooh, you probably wouldn't know. Give me a-- - And a way of sort of coming from the outside. - If you, if you can mean that, ideal or intelligence, I'll let you, um, - Like, for us, succeed. - You would be sure that you're a staircase that goes down actually into the-- - So I'm gonna look at, probably robbing 'cause you have the gun and look at these two. Oh, look at all of you and just be like, the office entrance is the other entrance, like, shut this door. We can't let it get out. Like, you know, can let it run. - Get your gun, Robin. - So I maybe have like one of the, like, one of you guys at least go watch the office door and then the rest of us all shut this one. We leave somebody here on guard while we go and try and find her in the house, basically. - Robin with the gun, surely. - Let's go outside, yeah. - Yeah. - Kirby just sees Mouth's moving 'cause he's blasting, you know, so he just walks in and looks for the kitchen. - Uh, yeah, yeah, like just literally, immediately off to the side. There's a kitchen, found it. - He's looking for a kitchen knife. - Oh, man, yeah, you can whole host a kitchen knife. There's like a cleaver of a knife. - Big knife. - Big knife. - Great. - You're a ritual baby. - You've got a, yeah, you've got this knife. You're ready. You are kind of searching the house. - Yeah, so like, so once these guys go down to watch the front entrance, I'm gonna shut and lock the door and then I'm gonna start trying to find her in the house, basically. - Okay. Great, well, as you to Angel and Robin, you're outside and just like keeping on the front. You can hear her like moving around in this building. You know she's in here somewhere, but like little disoriented and like, maybe it's in the upstairs, like the, it sounds like someone's, - Robin, you can throw things. - Throw things. - Yeah. - Can I try and locate like pinpoint where she might be? - Oh yeah, with like a blur-climbing roll or something easily. I'm inside.
But yeah, if you want to give me the gun, I'll tell you again. I think you guys are outside. I feel like you might have left with me. I'm going to spend three points of luck to make a success. Nice. Just barely. She's upstairs. She's upstairs in this building. How she managed to make it up there so quickly, weird. And she was being quiet, but it sounds like she's like rummaging. rummaging hard. Yeah, so if she's upstairs, I'm actually going to. Can I like stealth? Can I like try and quietly. Yeah, I'm approaching. I'm pretty much where I think she is. If you make a stealth roll there, stealth roll is a thing. You can definitely do that. This might be on post, her listen. Oh, why? Oh, okay. Well, I got 15. Well, she did not hear you at all. I don't know where, Kirby. Kirby, so I'm leaving him to do his crazy shit. You make it upstairs. And from the outsides, Robin and Angel. Like, you see, like, lights coming on in this building. And the. Like, something is happening in there. You make it upstairs to what looks like a study. And Vanessa is in there. And she has retrieved this book from sort of like a heavy locked kind of like fall down, like writing desk cabinet type thing. And she has this like large, old looking book that she has grabbed out of there. Another last possible second that she sees you. I mean, I charge for it to try and grab her basically. Okay, great. I think we can need another brawl. Type brawl. She's gonna dodge. Oh, is that just a three? Three. Yeah, boy. Kirby's walking up there. Oh, you've grabbed her. Yeah, you've. Oh, you can stand her. Yeah, Kirby's just normally walking up the stairs. Slowly, with enough walking up the stairs. We saw Kata got there and he's just following on holding. What's the music from like the. I cried at 13th and I was like, "What's your name?" I was like, "What's your name?" Just like that playing. Well, it's Taylor Swift. Taylor Swift and Taylor Swift. We are never ever giving back together. Okay, great. You are grappling. Yeah, so I've grabbed her and I've pinned her to the ground. You try to get us. We can need another. Another. Like another brawl? Yeah. You manage to grab her. She has not gone down, I will say. Okay. And. 23. Oh, okay. Right. What is your strength? My strength is 70. Okay. So. As you grab her. She. She like grabs your wrists. And she is maybe like. Like 5'6" Something like that. Um, fairly. Fairly likely built. And she. She pulls your arms away from her. She is strong. Too strong. Really strong. Um, and. And she does that. She opens her mouth. And just project all of them in this place. Great. Um, if you want a sanity check. Sure, I am assuming a like shriek and scream. Uh, wait, I did succeed. Ooh, okay. Um, just barely. Great. You can take 4 points of damage from. Oh, 4 points of damage from spiders. And you can lose a point of sanity. Sure. Uh, this vomit wolf spiders hers. Absolutely covered you. Bear in mind you do some form of acute erachophobia. Yeah. No, I'm like screaming and like chlorine at my face. Like trying to make sure they're not on me and stuff like that. Probably so I'd like go over, I imagine. Like, as I'm like, "Ahh, ahh, ahh." And I think she sees you with a knife coming through the door. And she. I do a shhh sound to her. Oh. She. I think she's going to literally vault backwards. Smashing through this third story window. And flopping down into the street. Oh god. Uh, Robin and Angel, you hear a smash. And you also hear Carter screaming. Uh, screaming about spiders. And from the front of the building, you see Vanessa Volkner. smacked down onto the tarmac. Uh, no, she doesn't land good. Like, like a human jelly bag smacks into the floor. But then, almost like her broken bones are kind of cracking back into place. She gets up and runs towards her car. Ah. The car parked right next to you. Um, the building. She's holding a book under one arm and has her keys. And is going to get in the video. We're running after her. Should the tires shoot her? Should something. I'm going to try and get into the back seat. Uh, yeah. I want to say. Give me like a. I'm going to do that. Like a concert window. Or something. I need. Basically, can you make it there? Because she is. 35. In. Uh, yeah. You know what? Great. Um, she has gone into the car. She's firing up the engine. And you are jumping in the. in the back seat. Like, as she is pulling away. She starts like. You have managed to dive into the back of her car. Um, as it's going. Bulls. Oh. You three. You've come down. Well. Okay, so. Oh, well. Okay. Yeah, yeah. I'm on the floor going. Oh! Okay, right. Well, we'll cut to you back upstairs. And. But we have got. a. Yeah. I'm at Carter and Kirby. Kirby's role come to this point. Oh, Carter is. He's on the floor. He's covered in spikes. I come over. I. I put the knife behind my back. And. I'm just like. It's okay. It's okay. She's gone. Yeah. It's no spiders, man. You know. There's a lot of spiders. It doesn't. You don't need to hurt anymore. It's okay. It's okay! And I stab him. Uh. Oh my god. Oh my god. Great. I need this. I need this. Can I try a dodge? Because I have a will to. I'm not just gonna give up and die. Oh my god! I want to try and like roll combat roll to the side. I think because you're covered in spikes. I need like an extreme dodge. It was gonna be herb and. It was running out of options. Very. Very distracted. Uh. Yeah, that is a famous 39. 36. And I needed a 12. Okay. Um. Right. I need. What are you doing? You can tell me exactly how this ritual is performed. What is going on here. So I stab him a lot of times. Uh. More than I needed to. Yeah. Just saying sorry. Sorry, I needed this. I needed this man. Yeah. No, no, no. Just needed it. Too handed. Stabby stabby stab. Right. And then I just. Very respectful at this point. Almost like in a days or a trance. Just start placing his body. Um. And start using the blood. Where I stab. Just start painting a circle around here. Kind of like, uh. It's not. What's the "The Man"? The trinity. Oh, yeah. The truvian man style. Sorry, it's horrible, yeah. I feel curvy. I need this. I'll fix everything in so good. And, uh. Yeah, I start painting the blood on me in like weird ruins that I don't understand, but they make sense. Yeah. And I start doing incantations and chanting that's like weird and gusty roll. And my eyes roll into the back of my head. I start cutting my own. I'm placing it onto the circle of blood that was your. Is your blood? Oh my god. And, uh. Yeah. I start asking for this all to be fixed. As you're doing that, like obviously I'm stabbed and basically dying. Can I weakly get like the photo of my wife and kid out? Oh my god. Oh my god. And just sort of like, hold it to my head. Hold it to my chest. As I die. And just like, lay there, your arms are sprayed. You can. You're holding this picture. Just as a knife plunges in over and over again. I didn't even know their names. Oh my god. Oh my god. Never knew. That's pretty bad. Oh my god. Yeah, this is 100% happened. Oh, fuck. We're gonna jump over to. Angel. And. Your. stood there. I think. You've seen this car take off. Um. And. You just hear this noise. This noise right next to you. Um. It sounds a lot like.

Cartillon. He was found with the murder weapon in the room. It was an open and shut case. About 10 days into his internment there, he was brutally murdered. But this was all covered up by the police. His body was cremated immediately. Interesting. There is a absolute hot felt outpouring. Hot felt outpouring for the host Robin Rivers and the poor Cartillon who both died tragically whilst recording the most recent episode of the supernatural files, which finally went viral. What's the name of the police chief? Joseph Kennedy. Oh, Donald Matthews. Oh, Donald Matthews the chief. Yeah, the sergeant was Joseph Kennedy. Joseph Kennedy, the police sergeant who had gone to the Cooper house, responding to the screams and gunfire. Pulled up his car, he charged inside, running down to save his comrades. He did not see the dozens and dozens of canine-like figures. Slowly emerged from the cornfield surrounding the house. And as one, started throwing fire at the end of the house. Boy, and the entirety of the Cooper house burns down and collapses and his canine figures stay there and watch it burn to senders until they eventually just slink off back into the shadows.

Summary:
The investigators track the realtor Vanessa Volker to her combined office and home late at night. After a tense confrontation at her door, she flees inside. A chase through the building ends with Carter grappling her, but she vomits a swarm of spiders on him and escapes by vaulting through a third-story window. Despite the fall, she gets up and runs to her car. Robin manages to jump into the moving vehicle's back seat and shoots Vanessa repeatedly in the head while she drives. She shows supernatural endurance, continuing to drive at high speed until the car crashes.
Simultaneously, inside the house, Kirby—apparently suffering a sanity break—finds Carter writhing from the spiders and, after offering false comfort, stabs him to death. Kirby then uses Carter's blood to perform a mysterious ritual, chanting and drawing symbols in an attempt to "fix" everything. Meanwhile, Angel, left outside, gets into a car with a driver named Ivan to pursue Vanessa's fleeing vehicle, setting up a continuing chase. The scenario highlights the investigators' desperation, Vanessa's unnatural powers, and the tragic consequences of creeping insanity.
