They landed on a dirt floor. It was like a basement. They found bones and two skulls. They were the bones of Helen’s parents! They must have been trapped in the house fire that killed Helen.
In a moment, the ghost of Helen’s mother appeared in the dark basement. Helen appeared, too. The ghosts hugged each other and vanished again with a bright flash of light. Molly and Heather knew the trouble was over.
Even though Molly and Heather did not get along, they suddenly felt like friends. Molly was happy that Heather was safe and Heather was happy that Molly cared about her. They went home to their family and there were no more ghosts in their lives again.
