    Elena, a marine historian, receives an anonymous letter about an abandoned lighthouse at Blackstone Cove, claiming it hides a map to a pirate’s cursed treasure. Ignoring the town’s warnings, she visits the lighthouse and encounters the ghost of the pirate who warns her of the treasure’s curse. Despite his warning, she sets off for the hidden cave where the treasure lies. Upon finding the treasure chest, she ignores another ghostly warning and opens it. Suddenly, she finds herself bound by the curse, trapped as a guardian of the treasure. Over the years, many come seeking the fortune, but all are warned by whispers of the curse. None who ignore it ever return, joining Elena as lost souls protecting the hidden treasure.
