Budding film-maker Jermaine is at his great-great uncle's Dead Yard, a service for the deceased that lasts the entire night. There's music, tons of people and lots of food, so when Jermaine spots a plate of patties he digs in immediately. Big Mistake!
Turns out that at a Dead Yard no one is allowed to eat from it before midnight, the time when the spirit passes through.

Now Jermaine’s got the angry spirit of his Uncle Carl in his life. ALL. THE. TIME. But with kids falling to a mysterious illness, cursed cassava seeds in the house and a strange being lurking in the neighbourhood  Jermaine and Uncle Carl will have to work together to keep the people they care about safe.

The first in a spook-tastic new series, perfect for fans of GOOSEBUMPSHIDE AND SEEKER and DREAD WOOD.
