Speaker A
felt a hand pull her underwater. She struggled for a while and barely made it back to shore. Even stranger, her father had died earlier that year.
Speaker A
What was his name? Edwin Hathaway. He's here. But do you hear that? He's not alone.
Speaker A
Tell no one. The next day, I found Edwin's obituary online. It said he [music] had died from a stroke, but one detail left me confused. The obituary said he died in the hospital, [music] yet somehow he had appeared in the lake. Just then, the
Speaker A
professor received news from the police. We immediately rushed to the lake. The [music] search team had found multiple sets of remains. The discovery left me deeply shocked. The next [music] day, the professor found Edwin's daughter, Paula. You think my dad is one of the
Speaker A
corpses they're pulling out of that water? Look, I know this is hard to accept.
Speaker A
No, [music] literally, there's no way. Why? He's right here. Your father was cremated? Where?
Speaker A
Using the address from the professor, I found the funeral home that cremated Edwin. [music] The entire place was covered in dust. It looked like it had been abandoned for years. When I went deeper inside, Edwin appeared. I saw him
Speaker A
standing behind the cremation furnace. [music] Is this what you wanted to be cremated? We were betrayed. What's become of us now? You can talk to them. You can help them through this. [music] And they'll remember you just as you were, and then
Speaker A
you can move on. We're not going anywhere. We've waited. There's business to finish. What is it that you want to finish?
Speaker A
You mean who? The next day, I went to the home of Carl, the funeral homeowner. His wife told me Carl had cancer. He did not have much time left, so I wanted to speak with Carl. When I found him, I asked why
Speaker A
he had put the remains in the lake. Carl said in despair that he had no other choice. His competitors had deliberately forced him out, and [music] his furnace was damaged beyond what he could afford to repair, so he could only secretly
Speaker A
place the remains in the lake. I feel evil around me everywhere. You're right, Carl. They're here. All the ghosts of the bodies that you threw into that lake.
Speaker A
Oh, no. I can see them. They're angry because of what you did. But I can help. Please, just give me the names of all the people that you threw into the lake. I can talk to their families. I can help them heal.
Speaker A
To help them suffer, you mean? Then they'll drop their anger. Okay. Not until he's suffered like we have.
Speaker A
You need to go into the light. There's forgiveness there. The next night, Carl's wife came to see me. She said Carl had passed away hours earlier. She thanked [music] me for sparing Carl any more pain. At the same
Speaker A
time Carl appeared beside the lake, Edwin blocked him from moving toward the light. Carl immediately fell to his knees and begged for forgiveness.
Speaker A
I'm begging you for forgiveness. Please. Please. That's not what you'll find here. Belinda. Alina, help
