Do you believe that those who pass before us, are still able to interact with the living? I believe that my grandfather occasionally visits me as a crow. So Hennessey’s characters communicating with their dearly departed loved ones was no big stretch for me. 

Embracing one’s past while reaching out to the future. Trying to honor those we loved and still love, without jeopardizing other relationships. Finding a balance. Taking a chance that those around you will understand. 

Lies that lead to twists. Ghosts that cause havoc. Departed loved ones that aren’t able to move on…held here by those that need them the most. Understanding. Love. Perhaps, a happily-ever-after for both the living and the dead.
