Ghost Game is part of the HEROES series, created with series editor Frank Cottrell Boyce.
Danny and his Dad have barely begun unpacking in their rented Victorian house when Danny feels the deathly chill of an evil presence. It's the last thing he needs after the recent deaths of his brother and mother. Increasingly terrified by freezing rooms, slamming doors and ghostly footprints in the carpet, Danny turns to the next door neighbour, a weird old woman who claims to have "The Sight". A haunting tale of terror unfolds as Danny must battle the malign forces in the house to free himself, and his family.
