Millionaire Kim Wentworth thinks her house, Crake Castle, is haunted, so she hires self-proclaimed "ghost hunter" James McAllister to find the ghost. McAllister (who cannot detect Marty standing next to him) offers Jeff a share of his fee to prove that the "ghost" at the castle is a phony. Jeff takes the job -- then McAllister is murdered.

Cultural References
 
(After Marty finds a room behind the bookcase)
Marty: A plain room, no way out.
Jeff: A priest hole.
Marty: A what?
Jeff: A place where they used to hide during the Persecution.

In an edict in 1559, Queen Elizabeth I banned Catholic Masses. This led to a prolonged period of open persecution of Catholics. Houses and castles owned by Catholics had "priest holes" built in them where clergymen could hide. Church relics were also hidden; and, in larger priest holes, church services were conducted. The persecution continued through the reign of King James I in the early 17th century.
 
Jean-Claude: May I speak with you, Monsieur?
Jeff: Sure. Asseyez-vous.

Asseyez-vous is French for "have a seat" (literally translated: "you sit").
