The Three Investigators and a group of neighborhood men stood shivering inside the old abandoned house.  They had just heard a bloodcurdling scream.

The boys listened hard.  They couldn't escape the feeling that something horrible was about to happen.  

Suddenly one of the men gasped.  "Look! Over by the door!"

The boys turned.  And then they saw it.

The glowing green ghost of a man who had died in the house fifty years before!
