THEY'RE REAL DEADHEADS! You're off to visit your grandmother, whose house backs up to a graveyard. At first the tombstones seem far away. But every day they move a little closer. Then you discover the headstones are disappearing. But the dead aren't gone — their ghosts are moving. Right into your grandmother’s house! If you decide to stay, you must battle a warrior ghost. If you decide to run, one of the kid ghosts follows you home. Will you be haunted...for the rest of your life? The choice is yours in this scary GOOSEBUMPS adventure that's packed with over 20 super-spooky endings!
