The Mentalist Recap - Season 2, Episode 5 - Red Scare - air date 10/30/09. In this episode Jane and the CBI team investigate the murder of a wealthy architect in an allegedly haunted mansion. The previous owner, now deceased, was very much into the paranormal, and held seance at the mansion. It is said that it is his ghost that haunts it.

Through the auspices of a very learned local bookseller, Jane learns that the previous owner was also into bootlegging - that is how he made his fortune. He also learns that there is allegedly a fortune hidden in the home.

The family member that sold the mansion (due to inability to pay back taxes) becomes irate after the sale, when she finds out that the new owner plans to gut her family home. Then there is the new owner's wife, who was seen parked by the mansion on the night her husband died. In the end, it is the seemingly innocent one that is guilty - all for greed.

Oh, and Rigsby finally tells Van Pelt that he loves her. Yes!
