Fitting into high school as a normal teen turns out to be harder than it sounds, for Nancy Drew. She soon befriends a younger boy and determines that the sleuthing world is where she belongs. While snooping through the attic, she finds a letter from the Hollywood star, Dehlia Draycott, written to someone named 'Z'.

I know it.

Nancy, hold on.

Thank you so much.

Bye, guys.

See you soon.

And have a safe train ride, okay?

I'll miss you.

Don't get hurt. Please, you

have to keep in contact.

Um, Ned? Don't worry

about that guy from Smallville.

- He's not my type.

Nancy.

You have a type?

Chief McGinnis!

I just wanna let you know...

...that I'm not sleuthing anymore. Bye.

Nancy Drew not sleuthing anymore?

Ha, ha. I don't think so. Ha, ha, ha.

Oh!

Hi, this is Carson Drew.

I'm running a little late.

Dad? Don't you think people who talk

on cell phones, um, miss things?

- Like what, hon?

- Like that woman in the street?

Uh, Mr. Drew? Nancy?

Yes.

Hi. Thank you so much

for not running me over.

I'm Barbara Barbara,

of Barbara Barbara Realty.

You're here.

I'm gonna get right out of your way.

How do you love it?

Uh, gorgeous. Oh.

Welcome.

It's not exactly what I had

in mind, especially given the price.

Well, as I told your daughter

on the phone...

...you do pay a premium for my-

Oh, I am such an oaf.

Um, as you were saying,

you pay a premium...

...for history,

architectural significance.

I mean, Dad, look at this woodwork.

Yeah, what she said.

Who's this?

Dehlia Draycott, the great film legend.

This was her home.

Didn't your daughter tell you?

We've both been somewhat busy.

Oh, excuse me. Gotta... Yeah.

Hello?

Do you know what? With a little

tweaking, you could be adorable.

Um, thank you?

Yes, you're just a makeover

waiting to happen.

I'm gonna give you

the name of my stylist.

Oh, come on, let's go upstairs.

I can't wait to show you.

Did you hear something?

I suddenly got a chill.

Have a look around, if you want.

DEHLIA:

Don't be afraid.

Please don't be afraid of me.

I'm here to help you.

You don't understand, I want to-

I want to help you.

I love that.

They fall for it every time.

That's a projector.

Oh, it's from one of her old movies.

There are so many booby traps

all over this house.

People get so scared sometimes,

they wet their pants.

Ha, ha. Where's the gift shop?

That's the spirit.

Miss Barbara Barbara, I know I called

asking for a house with a mystery...

...but things have changed, and...

It's complicated,

but we're gonna need a different house.

Honey cheeks.

Read the fine print.

No refunds, no exchanges.

And besides, you know, there's nothing

else available, in your price range.

I'm gonna use the gents',

then run to that deposition.

Watch this.

Something just happened

in the bathroom...

...which I am at a loss to explain.

Ah- The house has a haunted theme.

It's like a theme park.

It's so fun, right, Dad?

No.

Oh, did I mention?

There's a strange caretaker.
