It was a cold rainy day in August. A little boy called Jack, who lived in an old house, was very poor. His family worked hard to bring home the bacon. His father abandoned him and his brother when they were little, so things were hard for them.

The boy was wondering in his room about a way to help his family. So he went to the street to find an extra job. There he found a strange piece of paper that looked like a map. This could be an opportunity for him and his family, so he decided to follow it with his brother Gustavo.

The map led to their own house, where they were about to find out that it was haunted. According to the map, the former resident had hidden a fortune under the house and the one who found it could keep it. What they didn’t know is: it wasn’t a money fortune, it was something much deeper.

The siblings went all the way down to the basement, where they found disgusting animals like rats, frogs, cockroaches… There, they started to dig. Dig. Dig. They dug for days, and the boys were almost giving up, but then, they realized the map was upside down!

They went to the attic and found a trunk. Jack and Gustavo were very anxious to get the fortune and opened it a mile a minute. What they didn’t know was that they were dicing with death. They opened the trunk and got frightened as a ghost appeared. It killed the boys and they turned into ghosts too.
