The Ghost of Shady Lane

Front Cover
Llewellyn Worldwide, 2005 - Fiction - 144 pages
Creepy, run down, and possibly haunted, "The Boogerman House" becomes the object of Anne's fascination as she researches this historic landmark for a school assignment. Reports of eerie piano music and a ghostly "Gray Lady" have been circulating for generations. Are they true accounts of ghost activity or simply urban legend? Anne is determined to find out.

With reluctant help from Gena and Juniper, who are understandably scared of the spooky house, the Fortune Tellers Club works together to investigate the "Gray Lady." Is she the ghostly face captured in Anne's snapshot of the nineteenth-century home? Or perhaps she's the menacing spirit who attacked a frightened boy inside the old house years ago. Despite her own hair-raising encounters there, Anne won't give up on this mystery until she meets the "Gray Lady" for herself.
