Sal and Larry's ghost together work their way through the apartment building, where it is shown in the otherworld that all the residents are overgrown with a strange growth. When Sal reaches Terrence Addison, the owner of the building who never leaves his room, he finds that a fleshy green mass has possessed him since he was a child.

In the Lobby, he finds Todd, who has been possessed by the demon. Ashley had arrived at the apartment complex moments before, and upon opening the door she unveils a covered-in-blood Sal and calls the authorities. Sal is immediately arrested as they come. Two years later Sal is put on trial and, despite Ashley's best efforts, sentenced to death. Ashley later finds proof of Sal's story in the form of a picture of Larry's ghost but arrives too late to save Sal, witnessing his death. Episode 5: Memories and Dreams After Sal's death, Ashley continues Todd's investigations of the cult. She places explosives in the main cult temple, however, she is unable to bring herself to detonate them. Believing Sal is destined to destroy the cult she begins a ritual to revive him, and sacrifices herself to become a physical host for his spirit, temporarily keeping her alive and giving her special abilities. They go to the temple, where Ashley, Sal's spirit, and the ghost of Larry defeat "The Endless", the core entity of the cult, saving Todd from the cult's possession.
