ynopsis

Two brothers named Harry and Alex Altman are sent to a summer camp by their parents, a place called Camp Spirit Moon. Throughout the story, they suspect other children at the camp, the counselors, and the camp director are unlike ordinary people; they play practical jokes on each other that should be extremely painful. "(i.e., " a camper puts her hand into a fire, a counselor has a tentpole go through his foot.) Finally, they see a girl's head fall off. One night, another camper named Lucy tells Harry the truth of Camp Spirit Moon: a mysterious fog has turned everyone there into ghosts. Since Harry and Alex are the only living humans at the camp, the campers' only way to escape is to possess them. Lucy tries to get inside Harry's body, but Harry fights her off. Harry tells Alex about the camp and they escape through the woods, but they almost get eaten by a monster hiding in the forest floor and defeat it by chanting that the monster isn't real. Harry and Alex are soon confronted and captured by everyone in Camp Spirit Moon so they can be possessed by the ghosts of the summer camp. All of the campers fight each other for the chance to possess Harry and Alex and end up vanishing. Harry and Alex finally escape the camp and head to a highway to get home. Harry notices that Alex (who has been established as a very good singer in the beginning of the story) is humming off-key. From inside Alex's body, Elvis begs Harry not to tell anyone that he possessed Alex.
