D.J. and Alfred know there are no such things as ghosts. But when Grandpa disappears while helping a local school teacher restore an old mansion, they begin to wonder about the stories of the mansion being haunted by a ghost of a Chinese man from California’s Gold Rush.

The boys set out to find Grandpa, but when so many other mysterious events happen, they question whether they should be worried about something else instead. Will the boys unravel all the mysteries and find Grandpa?  

The eighth book in the D.J. Dillon series teaches that the spirit of fear is not from God.

A glossary is included in the back of the book.
