    About this ebook

    A group of teenagers accidentally summon the ghost of an alive, elderly relative after school one day, and immediately, are enamored with the idea of having the apparition as their friend. While primarily focused on the benefits of having a new unworldly companion, the friends ignore the costs of what having such a friend entails, and the danger it could mean for the elderly man's health.
