Ten-year-old Kristina is forced to live for a while with the boring Uncle Ralph until her parents return from a far expedition. The old manor house deep in the forest is cozy, like a grave. “A bad place,” you would say. Something strange is going on here! All night long doors slam, blood-chilling rustles won’t let anyone sleep, and in the damp, dark attic, something terrible is growing stronger. Kristina will have to ask for help… a ghost! But everyone knows ghosts don’t exist! So who is that little boy who wants to play with Kristina—or maybe not to play?
