Have you ever been convinced something is wrong and found out later that it wasn’t that way? Imaginations are great things, except that sometimes your imagination can run wild and make you think something entirely different than the truth.
Spencer is spending his summer vacation at BirdLake. He is sure that there is a haunted house nearby. The house is rundown and he keeps finding clues that the house is haunted; but, is it just his imagination running wild, or is someone setting him up? Spencer makes a new friend in Mitch. Spencer spends a lot of time trying to convince Mitch that the house is truly haunted. But Mitch seems too skeptical to come around to Spencer’s way of thinking. Does Mitch know something that Spencer doesn’t?
