That is terrifying!

Still amazed! Ryan speaks to nurse, cars stare, and the crew records his interaction with her. Most of them did not believe their eyes initially, but discovered he is the real deal.

Finally the torment begins

This volume hits the ground running.
Having been pushed to a corner for the sake of screening programs, Ryan is forced to face literally and figuratively his family demons.
Ryan finally decides to walk a path that he has been avoiding since his childhood when his family got killed. Tough act for him.
The story sees Ryan slowly coming around and finally the connection which shocks the boots out of his friends who were goading him.
The story gives some weird Ghostbusters vibes.
The next volume is going to bewacky interesting.

Hello Nurse!

While show producer/director Brad wants to inject more hype into the show, Ryan insists on keeping it real.
Filming in a derelict hospital where a nurse has killed herself, Ryan summons her ghost, only to get more than the team bargained for.
