Jack Lampička

Every old house's attic holds a secret. Especially if you live in Háj ve Slezsku. In these parts, dolls come to life, spirits communicate through a Ouija board, and ancient encyclopaedias lie in dusty shelves. There's a grain of truth in every rumour, as they say.

Did Jack the drunkard really trick the Devil? Young Petr never believed the stories, but Halloween gives all spectres a chance to come to life. And sometimes, you just have to save the world.

Jan Hlubek, the Czech father of children's horror, takes you in his novella to a place where Halloween lives.
