Nelya and Stint are history students who have come to an abandoned house in the forest. The leaves on the trees were beginning to fall, and the wind howled through the pipes. The young men were searching for information about the former residents of this house for their term paper.

Inside, it turned out to be dark and damp. Nelya opened an old chest containing letters and diaries. Shabanov carefully studied the yellowed photographs. From the letters, they learned about a love and a tragedy that had occurred here thousands of years ago.

Reading the diary and letters, and examining the photographs, the students imagined the lives of those residents. The mystery of the old house captivated them more and more.

Maxim helped Nelya decipher the handwriting in the diary, while she calmed Stint whenever he grew angry over the lack of information. As they unraveled the family secret, they grew closer themselves, finding mutual support in the gloomy atmosphere of the house.

Suddenly, Maxim heard strange footsteps behind his back and spun around sharply. Nelya stood beside him, listening intently to every sound. And suddenly, Max saw a dark figure flicker past the doorway behind him.
