| As the Drew Crew strategizes over how to deal with the Agleaca's curse, Bess announces a reward for anyone who can provide information. At the same time, a girl named Amanda is found badly injured by the police, and Nancy comes under suspicion after Amanda mentions her name. The gang learns that Amanda and her brother Gil are in possession of a hand mirror stolen from the Hudson family that was used in the first summoning of the Agleaca, and want to sell it to them. However, Gil has gone missing, allegedly at the hands of a forest-dwelling spirit known as the Gorham Wraith. The Drew Crew are able to find Gil (after an unpleasant run-in with Everett Hudson), but the Wraith traps them. Nancy discovers that it fears fire and burns it out of existence with a lighter. The police arrest her for possession of stolen property, but Ryan bails her out by claiming the mirror was a gift. By breaking the mirror's glass, the Drew Crew finds a message hidden underneath that reveals the key to defeating the Agleaca can be found in a sea shanty. | |||||||

| A historian informs the Drew Crew that the only preserved recording of the sea shanty is an old 45 vinyl record, last owned by Johnny Mac, a drunk killed in a hit-and-run in 1975. The group's pursuit of the record unintentionally attracts Johnny's vengeful spirit; he starts ambushing and attacking Nick, calling him "Buddy". Complicating matters further is the sudden arrival of Nick's mother Millie, who wants her son to return to his family home in Miami and questions his relationship with George. Nancy connects Mac to a group of other young men and women who made a deal with the Agleaca back in the 70s, only to die in freak accidents on the same day. The Crew finds the record hidden in an old jukebox, and by playing it are able to banish Johnny's spirit before he kills Nick. George and Nick reconcile with Millie, who agrees to let her son stay in Maine. An analysis of the record reveals that the Agleaca once named Odette Le Mar was the lover of Bess's ancestor, Douglas Marvin, who may have had a hand in her death. | |||||||
| 21 | 3 | "The Secret of Solitary Scribe" | Rachel Raimist | Alex Taub | February 3, 2021 | 0.46[4] | |
| Bess conducts research suggesting that it may be possible to undo the Agleaca's curse by returning Lucy's bones to the sea. Nancy and Carson track down AJ Crane, a reclusive author of horror novels who happens to be the only survivor of the 1975 incident. Crane refuses to help, so Nancy steals a talisman hanging outside his house and has Hannah Gruen of the Historical Society identify it as a powerful charm that attracts malevolent spirits. Crane is arrested when he breaks into Nancy's house to retrieve it. Despite previously opposing Bess's idea of returning the bones, Nancy changes her mind, but the Agleaca rejects the bones. Crane escapes custody and tries to burn Gruen alive, revealing that the deal he made was to save her life in 1975. Nancy talks him down and Crane, resigned to his fate, leaves to die in a tragic accident. The Crew ransack his house for tools to fight the Agleaca. Nick and George sleep together for the first time. Nancy, Carson, and Ryan secretly bury Lucy's bones in the woods. | |||||||
| 22 | 4 | "The Fate of the Buried Treasure" | Larry Teng | Céline Geiger | February 10, 2021 | 0.46[5] | |
| With the deadline for the Agleaca's revenge approaching fast, Nancy has Ace take Carson and Ryan to purchase a sacred dybbuk box which can supposedly trap the spirit. On the way back, Carson encourages Ryan to connect with his daughter. Nancy and Bess track down a necklace that once belonged to the Algeaca when it was alive, which was given by Douglas Marvin to his second wife, Agnes. Although Agnes was believed to have gone insane, Nancy learns that she was imprisoned by her husband when she learned the truth about his crime. The necklace is found based on a cypher Agnes wrote before her death, along with incriminating letters. George and Bess both struggle with the implications of their impending deaths, and both are forced to make peace with their fears. The Algeaca destroys the dybbuk box and rejects Nancy's heartfelt plea to spare them if they get justice for her death. With no other options, the Drew Crew decide that the only hope they have of cheating death is to kill the Agleaca. | |||||||
