Overview

Ghost just wants to be scary like ghosts are supposed to be. The only thing holding him back are his own doubts and fears. When Ghost is given the chance to prove himself by scaring Chicken, he learns just how tough of a job being scary really is, but also learns a lot about who he truly is inside. Ghost finds out that "believing in ghosts" really just means believing in yourself.
