Review

The story could easily be written for young readers, but for the dark side of Olive having witnessed her dad killing himself by jumping out the aptment window. Halloween type of story, mom is an exactress who wants her daughter to relive her fame. Olive finds a venue where she can be herself as an actress. The problem is her stage is haughted by ghosts, that want to ensnare the living. This is better suited for a more mature audience .

Overall Book Score: good
