Bookroo's summary

In a remote cottage, boys weave chilling stories of forbidden forests, drawing from Filipino and Native American legends. As night falls, the line between fiction and reality blurs, and strange figures seem to join them at the table. Are these tales just stories, or is something more sinister at play?

From the publisher

This time the boys find themselves in cottage country making up spooky tales about staying out of the forest. Tales from the Philippines and Native American legends are told until the boys can almost see strange characters at their dinner table that night.
