Norman Babcok can speak to ghosts, thus cementing his status as a weirdo by everyone in Blithe Hollow, including his own family. Norman accepts that people find him strange and is comfortable with being a loner. But his “talent” may just come in handy when a witch that was killed 300 years ago comes back from the dead, goes berserk and is determined to seek revenge for her death. Not an outstanding story, but entertaining nonetheless.
