Their haunting teacher has challenged the ghosts to haunt three houses tonight. The first two houses are super easy, but house #3 has some surprises for the ghost students. They will have to do some research and all of their smarts to find the right way to haunt a house of ghouls. 

Crimi and Miller turn a bit about ghosts on its head with their fun look at Halloween and ghosts. The simple, cartoony illustrations make this less-scary and more accessible to a younger audience.
