Bookroo's summary

When Stacey moves back to Stoneybrook, she and her friends discover an antique trunk in the attic. Inside, Mallory finds a diary from the 1890s, belonging to a girl named Sophie. As Mallory delves into Sophie's past, she uncovers a chilling mystery that suggests Stacey's house might be haunted. With the possibility of ghosts lurking, the Baby-sitters must unravel the secrets of the past to bring peace to the present. Can they solve the mystery before the spirits overstay their welcome?
