Synopsis
A teenager's strange visions lead her to a secret grave in the Fear Street woods--and on a terrifying hunt for a killer. A bony hand beckons from a shallow grave, but only Ellie can see the skeletal hand. Ellie's visions of past secrets and future horrors lead her to the body of a girl killed two years before . . . and possibly to the murderer.
