This adorable Halloween story celebrates finding one’s place in the world and making space for others, perfect for fans of Flavia Z. Drago’s The World of Gustavo series.

A little ghost sets out into the world to find a place of his own to haunt, but it’s not so easy! Every place he goes is already haunted by someone else. He perseveres and finally finds it—a dusty, creaky home, perfect for haunting. But then he hears a knock at the door. It’s another little ghost in need of a place to roam. Will he scare the other ghost away or make room for a new friend?
