An urgent summons brings detecting duo Pureluck Homes and Jane Ampson to Bram Tender’s annual Halloween party. But all is not fun and games as the party goers – employees at Tender's Novelty Co. – are in danger of being…or-elsed.
Our peerless private investigators must put a stop to practical jokes gone too far: itching powder allergies, critical banana slippage, silly string suffocation, and chattering vampire teeth. Can they save the day, win the Halloween contests, and ferret out the perpetrator all before the party ends with a bang?
Take on the roles of Pureluck Homes and Jane Ampson in this haunting case.
