Synopsis
You will never look at board games, dolls, or garden gnomes the same way again.
After the untimely death of her father, Shondra drops out of college feeling lost and uncertain about her future. That’s until a very peculiar, timeworn box shows up in her life. Little does she know, but that cursed antique will change the course of her life forever, leading her to the rag-tag group of paranormal objects experts at Darrow & Grimes.
In a Ghostbusters meets Storage Wars romp, the Darrow & Grimes gang take Shondra under their wing in their search for everyday objects afflicted with curses or inhabited by spirits. The item they’re hunting this time? A first edition of the board game Mansions of Madness. This particular copy is said to drive its owner to the brink of insanity… and then death… in just ten short days. But when they are outbid during the auction by a passionate gamer, Justin, they have to work against the clock to save Justin from the destructive powers of the game. To make matters worse, arch nemesis, Nemicon, always seems to be one step ahead of Darrow & Grimes.
Deeper mysteries unfold as Shondra tries to figure out her place in this new and confusing world. Can she step up and prove herself to the Darrow & Grimes team? For fans of Ghosts and American Pickers, Arcane Auctions Wars and The Eldritch Terrors will have you laughing while you check your closet for any stray haunted dolls… just in case.
