Ria DeLuca has made a career out of chasing ghosts. With nearly two million subscribers, a talent for urban exploration, and a psychic ability she refuses to call psychic, she’s used to walking into abandoned buildings and finding things most people would rather leave alone. What she isn’t used to is getting a message from Sam Golbach. When Sam and Colby invite Ria to join them for a paranormal investigation, she expects one collaboration, one creepy location, and maybe a few new subscribers. Instead, she finds herself becoming part of their world. The investigations get stranger. The nights get longer. The friendship gets closer. And then the internet notices her chemistry with Colby. Suddenly, fans are making edits, shipping them across social media, and begging for more videos together. At first, Ria and Colby think it’s funny. So they play along, giving their audience the little moments they want. A hand on the shoulder. A shared blanket. A stolen hoodie. A little flirting for the camera. It’s all just fan service. Until the cameras turn off. Because somewhere between haunted houses, sleepless nights, late-night conversations, and pretending to be something they’re not, Ria and Colby start wondering if maybe the fans weren’t completely wrong. Some connections can’t be explained by a camera. Some feelings are harder to fake than they thought. And sometimes, the scariest thing isn’t what’s waiting inside the haunted house. It’s falling for someone when millions of people are watching.
