Pope County, Minnesota
By the shores of Lake Minnewaska

Five teenagers out for a joyride (with a couple of younger siblings stowing away in back) break down near an abandoned lot beside a swamp and spot an eerie spectre rising from the murk.
A little research reveals that the property once belonged to Charlotte "Shorty" Lysedale, missing since 1985 and presumed murdered.
Appalled that one of their county's senior citizens may have been the victim of unpunished foul play, the kids stake out her property to see if the ghost will appear again.
When they discover they're not as brave as they thought, they turn to their community's source of all wisdom, their pastor, to find out whether ghosts really exist and what they should do about it.
