When they got back to the house Jesse opened up the bottom of the snow globe and found the inscription.

To my dearest Frank

All my love

Always,

Samantha.

It was a sweet inscription and should have made him feel better, but somehow it just filled him with dread.

"Why don't I make us something to eat?" Margie asked.

"That would be great," Gail replied, as Jesse checked on the equipment and the salt lines. There had been no activity and the lines were all still intact.

With Margie in the kitchen, Gail sat down next to Jesse. "What now?," she asked

"Now we wait for Frank to show himself again."

"How can he with the salt?"

"It will play out one of two ways: either he will keep testing the lines and pushing it until we miss a breach, or make a mistake. He will eventually find a way through. Or, we let him out when we are ready and try talking him down."

"What about Margie?"

Jesse rubbed his head once more. He had gotten very little sleep the night before, and as the adrenaline ran down, he was getting tired. "We keep her safe and we keep her near us. I also want to see if we can find anything out about Frank and about his wife's death. Something isn't right, and until we find out what it is, we are still driving blind."

They spent the next hour researching the couple, but there was very little to find. They had no social media presence, and there was very little online about them. The local paper had a short passage about Samantha's disappearance and presumed death. Then there was a small column later on about Frank's accident. A month later, there was a report from the inquest saying that his death was considered suicide. They had learned nothing new.

Margie cooked up a nice hot pot which she brought through and served them all at the dining table. It seemed surreal to be seated around the snow globe surrounded by its double circle of salt and candles.

As she ate, Margie’s eyes would flick to the globe again and again. It obviously made her nervous, but she kept up small talk and smiled like a gracious host.

Jesse talked to her, but Gail carried most of the conversation, and as they started to eat, they were talking about her garden and how some clematis was taking over a fence. Jesse let his mind drift and took a bite. He didn't expect to be hungry; he rarely was when he was searching for spirits. This time, the search was over. He knew there was a haunting and so he didn't expect to be able to eat at all. The excitement usually overrode his appetite. However, when he took a bite, the food was so delicious and his stomach rumbled, so he began to eat, grateful for the nourishment. They would need it as the night wore on… of this, he was certain.

"What happens now?" Margie asked, as she tidied away the pots.

"I think we need to allow Frank to materialize," Jesse said.
