Isaiah and his brother and sister decided to become paranormal investigators and prove the existence of ghosts by gathering electronic voice phenomena. However, they got in over their heads. When their house became haunted, they failed to convince their skeptical half-brother, Harlan Watts. The spirit of their dead mother, frozen by a formula developed by their grandfather, helped them overcome the haunting. But were they prepared for Specter 005, a powerful demonic entity? They also visited two famous ghost sites in Birmingham: the ghost of the murdered May Hawes at East Lake Park and the ghost of the sadistic foreman "Slag" Wormwood at Sloss Furnaces.
