Dean and Sam simply took her words as modesty and didn’t press further.
“Why would the ghost go to that house? Is there something there that attracts it?”
Sam couldn’t help but ask the question on his mind.
“What did you see in your vision?”
“Bloodstains…”
As Elise reached this point, her expression became unusually serious.
“Bloodstains that don’t belong to a human.”
“I suspect the demon was in an injured state when it entered your home.”
“I don’t know what it went through, but the blood it left behind began to continuously attract ghosts to gather in the house you once lived in.”
Here, Elise paused.
“Dean, Sam, the constant appearances of ghosts and supernatural events around you are all due to the scent of the blood left by that demon.”
“Even to this day, that blood is still having an effect.”
Hearing this, the expressions of the Winchester brothers grew grave.
“Among the many gathered ghosts, there is one particularly evil presence. It won’t stop as long as Jenny and her child, who live in the house, remain alive.”
“What should we do then?”
Their methods for dealing with ghosts were either digging up graves and burning the remains or resolving lingering grievances.
But against this kind of wandering, purely malicious spirit, neither of the above methods would work.
“I’ll go with you.”
Elise stood up.
“Alright, shall we set off now?”
“Right, but we need to wait for my two assistants first. They’ll be here soon, and we’ll leave together.”
Once Four-Eyes and Tucker arrived, the three of them got in the car and headed to the house where the Winchester family used to live.
By the time everyone arrived, it was already afternoon.
Since Dean and Sam had visited here before, Jenny, the current owner of the house, was not unfamiliar with them.
However, she wasn’t quite clear on the purpose of their visit at this time.
“Let me introduce you. These are our friends, Elise and her assistants.”
“If you don’t mind, could we go inside and check the house now?”
Jenny, holding her son, politely declined their request.
In her arms, the boy was trembling and hadn’t stopped crying. Jenny herself also looked panicked and uneasy, her eyes constantly darting around as she spoke.
It was as if she had become wary of everything around her.
It was at this moment that Elise, standing in the middle, finally spoke.
“I know you’re uneasy, young lady.”
“You and your child are being harassed by a certain presence in this house.”
“It’s trying to hurt you both, and it almost succeeded just now, didn’t it?”
Hearing these words, Jenny’s expression changed, and she looked at the five people in front of her with suspicion and uncertainty.
“Relax, we mean no harm. The purpose of our visit is precisely to help you out of this predicament.”
“But we hope you can grant us a little bit of trust.”
Elise’s words were gentle yet carried strength, comforting Jenny’s frightened heart.
After a moment’s hesitation, Jenny stepped aside, making way.
The five of them filed in.
Tucker and Four-Eyes immediately began setting up their equipment.
Dean usually relied on electromagnetic sensing devices to detect ghosts too. Seeing how professional they were, he immediately became interested and went over to watch.
As for Elise, her expression hadn’t been good since entering the house.
Sam, following behind her, could clearly sense the increasingly heavy atmosphere around her.
“There is more than one ghost in this house.”
Elise said as she walked around inside.
“However, most of them are just spirits capable of harassment. There’s only one true malicious spirit.”
“As long as we defeat this malicious spirit, everything will be over. But it is very evil and powerful. My chances aren’t high.”
Upon hearing this, Sam looked shocked.
“Even you can’t exorcise them?”
“Child, you need to understand, there’s a difference between a medium and an exorcist. We aren’t the type specifically meant to fight malevolent spirits.”
“But I will try my hardest.”
After the last incident, Elise had gained a clear understanding of her own soul’s strength.
As a living being, she was indeed stronger than the average malicious spirit.
But those evil souls could strengthen themselves through other means.
When encountering those extraordinary evil presences, she found herself powerless.
But for the Winchester brothers and the mother and child living here, she was willing to try.
“Understood…”
Sam nodded.
Soon, the assistants had prepared the environment for the séance.
Elise then took out an amulet from her pocket and placed it over her heart.
“What’s this? The writing on it looks like Chinese… but also a bit different…”
Dean couldn’t help but ask curiously.
“This is a protective talisman. It protects my physical body from being attacked or possessed by evil spirits while my soul is out.”
“It comes from a young yet powerful exorcist… If we could invite him this time, the situation could be resolved perfectly…”
“It’s just that some time ago, he seemed to have gone out on business. I don’t know if he’s back yet.”
Seeing the regret in Elise’s expression, the Winchester brothers realized that the exorcist she spoke of was absolutely no ordinary person!
Once everything was ready, Elise entered the trance state.
She closed her eyes tightly, continuously describing the scenes she witnessed after entering the other realm.
Tucker recorded on video, while Four-Eyes took notes.
“I am now walking in the living room… going upstairs along the staircase… I see three tightly closed doors…”
“One of them emanates a shocking evil aura…”
“I’m going to push the door open now…”
Everything seemed to be going very smoothly.
Suddenly, Elise’s body tensed up, and then she opened her eyes.
“Is it resolved?”
Sam quickly stepped forward to ask.
“No…”
Elise smiled wryly.
“The residual demon’s blood in that room has strengthened the malicious spirit’s power.”
“The surrounding ghosts obey it and tried to force me to stay there.”
“I could only temporarily return to my body.”
“There are too many of them. With just me alone, I can’t contend with them.”
“May I ask, do you have the ability to help others achieve soul projection?”
Dean inquired.
“If possible, Sam and I would be glad to help.”
“I’m sorry, I can’t… Even if I could, three souls would still be too powerless against them.”
Elise sighed, looking somewhat dejected.
“What should we do now?”
Sam couldn’t help but look at his brother.
If haunted by a malicious spirit, even moving house wouldn’t help.
They would follow you like a shadow, haunting you until the haunted person dies.
Now that even the known medium couldn’t deal with the malicious spirit, were they just going to stand by and watch it kill Jenny and her child?
“Do you two have any money?”
Suddenly, Elise asked.
The Winchester brothers were startled upon hearing this, exchanging glances.
Was she starting to ask for payment now?
She spoke so well earlier, and now, without having solved any problem, she asks for money…
That doesn’t seem right, does it?
“Don’t misunderstand. I want you to go invite someone else…”
Hearing this, Dean seemed to understand something.
“You want us to find the person who gave you this talisman?”
“Correct…”
Elise nodded.
“Can he handle it?”
Sam questioned.
Surrounded by a host of ghosts plus a malicious spirit, an ordinary exorcist probably couldn’t manage, right?
“A scene like this is well within his capabilities.”
As Elise said this, she recalled the scene in the other realm from before, her tone full of emotion.
“I have never seen an exorcist as powerful as him…”
“Go and invite him with confidence. As long as he comes, all problems will be easily resolved.”
“Where is he?”
Dean asked again.
“Go to the Walk of Stars. There’s an antique shop there. The young shop owner is the person you’re looking for.”
