Sometimes the living are more dangerous than the dead.
When psychic tarot reader, Penny, receives tickets to a concert from her estranged dad, she finds herself dragged into another haunting. The ghost of a murdered showgirl is rumored to haunt a recently renovated old showboat. Penny doesn't want to get involved, but her sister, Dora, is a huge fan of the rock star currently performing on the boat, and he wants Penny and her friends to uncover the truth before the spirits scare off his girlfriend.
Penny dreams about the mysterious lady in red, and the gang uncovers clues about her life. After a séance goes astray, Penny wants out, but it's too late. A local casino owner with a personal interest in the supernatural threatens to hurt her dad if she doesn't cooperate.
The murdered showgirl doesn't seem to be the only entity haunting the old boat. The captain's footsteps are still heard walking the deck and there are hints of a third presence. But even the ghosts may not be as deadly as a man with a mission, a woman scorned, and an inexplicable new ability given to Penny after the séance.
Will the gang defeat their antagonists, both living and dead, before an occult plot drags them into the dark?
