In this episode of The Dead Files, titled "Afflicted," psychic medium Amy Allan and retired NYPD homicide detective Steve DiSchiavi investigate a case in Grass Valley, California. The episode begins with Amy meeting with the homeowners, a couple named Lisa and Joe. They explain to Amy that they've been experiencing strange occurrences in their home for several years. The activity began with small things, like objects being moved or misplaced, but has escalated to frightening occurrences, including physical attacks, demonic voices, and unexplained scratches all over Lisa's body.
Amy begins her walk-through of the home and immediately picks up on a malevolent energy. She explains to Steve that she feels as though there are multiple entities present, including a negative, malevolent energy that is attacking Lisa. As they investigate further, Amy has several psychic visions of dark rituals and satanic practices being performed in the home. She also senses the presence of a shadowy figure and an older, male spirit who she believes may be trying to protect the family.
As Steve conducts his investigation, he uncovers a dark history connected to the home. He discovers that the land was previously used as a morgue and that a woman named Sarah allegedly killed her husband on the property in the 1920s. Additionally, a cult known as the "Church of Satan" operated in the area during the 1970s. Steve surmises that these events have contributed to the negative energy present in the home.
As the investigation continues, Amy and Steve work to uncover the true nature of the malevolent entity in the home. Amy conducts a ritual in which she attempts to communicate with the entity. As she does so, the activity in the home becomes more intense, and both Amy and the homeowners feel physically threatened.
In the end, Amy and Steve reveal their findings to the homeowners and offer solutions to help them address the negative energy in their home. They recommend that the family perform a cleansing ritual and create a space of positive energy in the house. They also offer to arrange for a priest to come to the home and perform a blessing.
The episode ends on a hopeful note, with Lisa and Joe expressing their gratitude for Amy and Steve's help and feeling hopeful about being able to free their home from the negative energy that has been plaguing them for years.
