A friend of Grandpa's complains of ghostly shrieking in the long-ago burned-out Waverly hotel on the edge of their town, Murky Creek. Phantom Finders Abby and Theo use a hotel master key and brave a raging snowstorm to find out what all the noise is about and hopefully stop it.

A train mysteriously appears at the long-abandoned Murky Creek station and a young man says he lost his ticket to go meet his love. Phantom Finders Abby and Theo review museum records to help him, especially because the voyage he's talking about happened almost a century ago!.

An old, silent music box has strangely begun to play its tune, and when Anya Ivanovich asks for the Phantom Finders' help, Abby and Theo follow the trail of clues to Murky Creek's once-ornate theater, the Kirby Center.

Flickering lights and a ghastly screech begin plaguing Murky Creek at the turn of each hour. The Phantom Fingers investigate the clock tower by the high school football stadium and the memorial inside it, dedicated to a star player who would have reason to curse his old stomping ground.

When Grandpa finds a mysterious compass washed up on the seashore, Phantom Finders Abby and Theo review museum artifacts and brave a raging storm to discover whom it belonged to and what it means for their town, Murky Creek.
