Chapter 4
In this chapter, Lewis observes Enoch Wallace's daily routine and investigates the peculiar living arrangements at Wallace's property. He discovers that Wallace lives in a shed attached to a well-preserved but strangely slick and black-windowed house, which seems almost otherworldly. Lewis also finds a family burial plot with an unexpected third gravestone, raising questions about Wallace's past and the mysteries surrounding the house.
