Here, Casey meets Creepy Girl, a ghost who cannot move on, and the sprightly Polterghost. Sensing a common cause, the three misfit spirits agree to work together to find out why Casey has not crossed over.

Will the spectral trio be able to free the souls trapped in the circus, or will what they discover trap them forever?
