Abstract After Kenny Huldorf's family moves into a 1789 row house, Kenny meets the ghost of Caleb, a 16-year-old slave. According to records from the period, Caleb killed himself in the little attic room in Kenny's house. But Caleb says otherwise and involves Kenny in a centuries old mystery that could leave him trapped in the past forever. A Camelot reformat. The house is very, very old-built in 1789. In the kitchen there's a door that opens to a narrow flight of stairs that corkscrew up to a tiny bedroom. If you're curious, you may want to find this place and sleep there some night-even if you know that strange noises may awaken you. But that's not all. In the dark of night, you'll see a white glow, almost shiny, and two hands will rise from a dark stain on the floor...followed by two arms...a head...then a neck. The humanlike shape, radiating a soft, pale, pulsing light, will reach out to you...beckoning. DO NOT FOLLOW...or you may be trapped forever in the unknown horror of this haunted room!
