The antique shop is a historical landmark discovered by Tom, Mark and Melinda in the small town of Greenville Valley in upstate New York tormented by demonic historical paintings, possessed porcelain dolls, and wicked ancient artifacts. The Whitfield's owned the antique shop in the early 1800's and lived in The Shadow Heart Castle Mansion estate which was built on desolate American civil war battle grounds located in upstate New York with dimensions of American civil war soldiers apparitions, their ownership of the antique shop lasted until the late 1950's and supernatural events continued to haunt the newly restored two story brick building. The old couple's bodies were never found, and the antique shop was abandoned for many years.
