In Chapter V, the story ventures into the chilling realm of the supernatural as Phillis Spencer turns to the infamous Redditch Wizard, Dr. Wilmore, to contact the spirit of her lost love, Tom Spencer. On All Hallows’ Eve, under the shadow of ancient superstition, Phillis and her maid secretly visit the eerie Abbey Gate House, where the doctor prepares to summon Tom’s spirit through a mystical mirror.

Within the doctor’s shadowy sanctum, filled with strange artifacts, bones, and ancient tomes, Phillis is faced with a choice: to glimpse Tom in a crystal or to question him through the enchanted mirror. Choosing the latter, she steels herself for what lies ahead, receiving a stern warning not to look away or behind her during the ritual.

As the smoke clears, Tom’s face materializes in the mirror, lifelike yet otherworldly. Phillis seizes the fleeting chance to ask three questions, her emotions teetering between hope and despair. She learns of Tom’s enduring love and his disapproval of her moving on, but his answer to her final question—a haunting revelation about his peace in the afterlife—leaves her shaken to her core.

This episode dives into the eerie and emotional, exploring the lengths to which love and grief can drive a person. Will Phillis find closure in this otherworldly encounter, or will the answers she sought lead to more torment? Tune in for a spine-tingling tale of forbidden magic, spectral apparitions, and the enduring power of love and regret.
