Summary:
While other towns celebrate Halloween, in Eerie-on-Sea it's Ghastly Night, and a grim spirit in a lantern awaits its moment. Legend says that if people fail to light manglewick candles on Ghastly Night, and if no showman conjures shadow puppets on the pier as an offering, the insulted Shadowghast will seize and devour the shadows of the living. When a magician from a theater group claims to know Herbie's origins and citizens start disappearing, Herbie and Violet must separate truth from tricks.
