Paranormal investigator Gus Roberts is an installer at SMYLE, Britain's biggest mobile network operator and internet service provider, whose first job with new recruit Elton John leads to a real-life haunting.

Gus and Elton get sent to fix the broadband at The Portland Beacon, a horror-themed hotel that Elton fears is another spooky experience despite assurances from Gus that it is a bunch of daft horror gimmicks.

Elton prepares to take his sister, Helen, to the Coventry Collectibles and Cosplay Convention, but Gus joins the trip when he discovers that the visionary Dr Peter Toynbee is speaking at the convention, and Richard comes along, too.

The Truth Seekers receive a message from subscriber Jojo74 containing a picture of what could be the legendary Beast of Bodmin. Keen to check it out, they head for Cornwall in HMS Darkside, but what they find there is far from expected.

Gus, Elton, and Astrid decide to use a SMYLE site survey of the former Chichester Institute for the Criminally Insane, now being converted into apartments, as an opportunity to do the first live-stream event on the Truth Seekers YouTube channel.
