In the 16th-century village of Ravenswood, an ancient oak tree hides a haunted tree house. A curious and brave little girl named Harlow, undeterred by the legends of the Ghost of Ravenswood, ventures into the woods to uncover the truth. There, she encounters an ancient ent, guardian of the forest, who reveals that the ghost is the spirit of a lost girl named Elara seeking closure. Harlow sets on a quest to find Elara's lost diary, unveiling a tale of love, loss, and unresolved conflict. Reading the diary aloud, Harlow helps Elara find peace, and the haunted tree house transforms into a place of harmony and unity. The story becomes a timeless legend, with Harlow and the ent guarding the ancient oak, leaving their mark on the fabric of time.

Tiana, Mackenzie, and Harlow have arrived at their high school to find it transformed for Halloween. The staff have built the most immersive Haunted House and the girls are informed their phones have a game to play. It’s all great fun, until Tiana steps into a classroom and finds a real witch’s hut in place of student desks. Her friends can’t see it, but their teacher is a witch!

This volume reflects on the ghostly and its varied manifestations including the uncanny, the revenant, the echo, and other forms of artistic allusion. These unsettling presences of the spectral other occur in literature, history, film, and art. The ghostly (and its artistic, literary, filmic, and cultural representations) remains of burgeoning interest and debate to twenty-first century literary critics, cultural historians, art historians, and linguists. Our collection of essays considers the wider implications of these representations of the ghostly and notions of the spectral to define a series of different, but inter-related, cultural topics (concerned with questions of ageing, the uncanny, the spectral, spiritualism, eschatology), which imaginatively testify to our compulsion to search for evidence of the ghostly in our everyday encounters with the material world.

Chasing Ghosts exposes the ill-founded paranoia that has allowed the national security state to both feed at the public trough and undermine America's civil liberties tradition.
