He looked.
“Just don’t be ridiculous,” he said. “It’s just an indoor crypt, and nothing else. There are no ghosts.”

In a crypt?
Who knew?
Gabby’s fight or flight was kicking in, and she had the very overwhelming urge to get the hell out of there.
Like she was suddenly in danger.

It appeared she had a new job there.
It was to be a ghostbuster.
And frankly, she didn’t sign up for that.
Not in the least.

It appeared Finn was one of the cops who had been authorized to be armed.
He wasn’t sure why he needed it here. Who was he going to arrest and shoot?
