When Joey DeAngelo first moved to Boston from New York, he had trouble making friends. Gil and Tank gave him a hard time at first, but after a few ghostly adventures together the boys have become friends. This weekend, Gil's dad has taken Joey and Gil on a fishing trip. With no old ships in sight, the boys thought they were safe from any ghostly adventures—but they couldn't have been more wrong! When a sudden storm capsizes their fishing boat, the boys wash up on Bird Island and decide to wait for help in the old abandoned lighthouse. Will the boys survive their night of terror with the ghost of the lighthouse keeper's wife?
