Fed up with having to share a tiny bedroom with her younger sisters: Lily, Carrie and Serena and after working nearly all summer long, Lissa Morgan earns enough money to get her own apartment.
Because Fleur, Illinois, only had two apartment buildings. The old grade school building and the town’s newest haunted manor, Lissa didn’t have many apartments to choose from. There was only two apartments available for her. The one Lissa chose just happened to be the tiny third floor apartment in the haunted manor.
In fact, Lissa fell in love with the tiny third floor apartment she had chosen for herself. Deep down, Lissa loved the idea of living in a haunted manor. But she had no idea just how living in a haunted manor was gonna change her life forever.
The haunted manor wasn’t just any haunted manor, this manor just happened to be the former home of the richest family in Fleur – the La Hauntes.
The La Haunte family consisted of papa banker Russell La Haunte, mama housewife Olivia Norse – La Haunte and their children: daughters Michaela and Rosie La Haunte; and sons Ronnie and Jonas La Haunte.
The day she moved into her tiny third floor apartment, Lissa was on cloud nine. She had finally gotten a place of her own and no longer had to worry about anyone invading her space.
Little did Lissa know that from first night on she would have a spirited roommate living there with her. It wasn’t just any new roommate, this particular spirited roommate was the beautiful Michaela La Haunte. The La Haunte’s eldest daughter and child who mysteriously slipped into a potion (containing a small bit of the Datura flower) induced coma like state of existence.
Although he sensed she wasn’t truly dead, Russell decided to place her body in a tomb like room somewhere on the third floor of their mansion.
Because she was not entirely dead, Michaela’s body had remained in great condition despite the length of time it had been locked up in the mansion’s secret tomb like room.
Since then, Michaela’s spirit had been roaming about the mansion searching for the person responsible for her condition and the source of the elements that had placed her in that state of existence.
From the get go, Lissa sensed she was not entirely alone in her apartment.
On the first night, Lissa caught a glimpse of Michaela’s shadow in the bedroom.
In the afternoon on the second day, Lissa met her new roommate Michaela La Haunte.
After a questionable greeting, Lissa and Michaela began talking, Michaela let Lissa in on a little secret … She’s not really dead, she’s simply lying in a potion induced coma and her body is hidden somewhere on the third floor of that manor.
While Lissa had her doubts about Michaela’s story, she did agreed to help Michaela solve the mystery of her mysterious condition.
During the first week there, Lissa met her new neighbors… Librarian assistant Sunny Davis and bank teller Erica Fisher and mechanic Jasper McKenna.
