Description
A first-rate horror story by international bestselling author of the Last Apprentice series, which is soon to be a major motion picture starring Jeff Bridges!
Fifteen-year-old Billy guards a castle prison. But it isn't just criminals he'll be guarding—the ghosts of executed prisoners haunt the place. When Billy is given the task of feeding the prisoner in The Witch Well, a ghost named Long-Neck Netty decides to play a trick on Billy during the feeding...a trick that could cost Billy his life.
Just in time for Halloween, this short story has been adapted into a 112-page, stand-alone novella, lavishly filled with black and white illustrations.

while eagerly awaiting the next installment.”
