In season 3 episode 6 of Psych titled "There Might Be Blood," Shawn and Gus are hired by a wealthy businessman named Robert Dunn (played by guest star Michael Hogan) to investigate a possible haunting in his mansion. The man believes that his deceased grandfather is haunting the house, but Shawn and Gus are skeptical.
When they arrive at the mansion, they meet Dunn's family members: his wife, daughter, son-in-law, and granddaughter. They all have their own reasons for wanting to believe in the haunting, and each of them presents a potential motive for committing a murder. As the investigation unfolds, Shawn and Gus must navigate a web of family secrets and long-standing grudges to uncover the truth.
Meanwhile, Detective Lassiter is dealing with his own family drama. His younger sister Lauren (played by guest star April Bowlby) is visiting him in town, and he is struggling to connect with her. Lauren is a free spirit who enjoys partying and taking risks, while Lassiter is a by-the-book police officer.

As the investigation progresses, Shawn and Gus discover that the true motive for the possible murder is more personal and heartbreaking than they could have imagined. The case becomes not just about solving a crime, but about bringing closure and healing to a family that has been torn apart by tragedy.
In the end, the case is solved, the ghostly rumors are put to rest, and Lassiter and his sister reconcile. "There Might Be Blood" is a complex and emotional episode that showcases the range and depth of Psych's storytelling.
