Jessica and Elizabeth Wakefield are ready for spine-tingling chills when they go to Lila Fowler's big Halloween party at Hathway Manor. When they arrive, skeletons pop out of trapdoors, witches cackle over their bubbling brew, and candy eyeballs are served as snacks. Is it true that a ghost haunts Hathway Manor? Lila says she doesn't believe in ghosts, but she looks nervous—especially after Elizabeth sees a light flickering in an empty attic window. The light is not one of the planned special effects. Could Hathway Manor really be haunted?
