Immerse yourself in The Boy at the Window, a spine-tingling ghost story from bestselling author Lucy Strange. Set in a fog-shrouded village, the tale follows young Hugo, who is haunted by the apparition of a boy at his window. While locals dismiss such visions as mere tricks of the fog, Hugo is convinced that the hollow-eyed figure he sees is no illusion. As he grapples with fear and curiosity, Hugo faces a poignant decision: should he open the door and let the ghostly boy in?

This atmospheric narrative delves into themes of grief, loneliness, and the unknown, making it both a haunting and heartwarming read. The story is enriched by the evocative black-and-white illustrations of Rohan Eason, which capture the eerie essence of the tale.
