Wow! Because Nancy and her "Drew Crew" are taking their investigations into both Lucy and Tiffany's murders down some supernatural roads – but can Nancy accept (or trust) the "truths" that she discovers?

Ultimately, they confront Dead Lucy in a horrifying séance, and Nancy (Kennedy McMann) is faced with a truth that seems to validate her greatest fear.
