She later hears a neighbor, Paula (Jennifer Blanc), being murdered because she returned to prostitution. Jackie reports the incident to a detective friend, Tim Crawford (Josh Stamburg).Jackie discovers an incomplete map that Danielle created before her death. The map shows that the building is far larger than it appears, as it has several secret rooms. Sarah gives Jackie Danielle's camera, which contains film that Jackie develops.

H. Holmes and have inherited his murderous disposition. They are discovered by the murderous family and chased throughout the building, unable to leave. Jackie calls Tim for help but Sarah is captured. Jackie manages to rescue Sarah and help her escape the building but is captured herself and brutally murdered.Tim arrives shortly after with several police officers but is unable to do anything as there is no visible evidence that the disappearances are sinister in nature.
