Chapter 34 Summary

Morely reflects on the day in October when he decided he would forge Vaudeline’s response to Evie. He went to a stationery boutique, purchased paper and ink common to stereotypically feminine tastes, and used a stamp that would make the letter seem as if it had come from Paris.

Chapter 35 Summary

Lenna is initially confused as to how Evie’s ghost was able to possess her at all, since ghosts are only active in the place of their death. Lenna deduces that Evie must have died in this place just as Volckman did, and her body must have been moved after the fact. Vaudeline encourages Lenna to perform the incantation that will dispel all ghosts from the room except for Volckman’s. Lenna does, but she changes the ending of the incantation to allow both Evie’s and Volckman’s ghosts to remain. Lenna is immediately possessed by Evie’s ghost, and Vaudeline by Volckman’s. Lenna begins to experience Evie’s memories; Evie confirms that she did indeed die in this room. Lenna interrogates Vaudeline about why she wrote the letter that sent Evie to this room, but Vaudeline denies writing this letter. With Evie’s memories now accessible, Lenna deduces that Morely must have intercepted Evie’s letter and forged a false response.
