Fifteen-year-old Courtney is used to being uprootedbut living on Cemetery Street proves to be more of a challenge than even Courtney can handle. Still, although the creepy cemetery and surrounding jungle next to her house are a bit spooky, Courtney doesn’t really believe in ghosts. Then strange things start happening. Lights flicker in the graveyard; tombs are desecrated with satanic markings; an innocent puppy is mysteriously killed. Suspense builds as Courtney and Josh, a handsome classmate, investigate rumors of devil worship in town, culminating in a terrifying Halloween night kidnapping and entombment.
