Pages 114-168 Summary

The next day, Devin, Erin, and Tom take the Horror House ride. When they get off the ride, Tom is shaken. He saw the ghost of Linda Gray. She was holding out her hands as if asking for help.

Many years later, when Tom is dying of cancer, he will say to the older Devin that at least he knows there is something after death. He adds with horror that he just doesn’t know if it’s good or bad.

By August, Devin is back to lying awake nights thinking about Wendy and about Linda Gray. He goes to visit Madame Fortuna to ask her if she really did see the girl in the red hat or if it was just an informed guess. For an answer, she brings out a cash box. Inside is an envelope with Devin’s name written on it. She hands it to him. She tells him to do what he really came to the park to do that day and afterward to open the envelope.

Devin goes to see Mr. Easterbrook to ask the favor Mr. Easterbrook promised him. Devin wants to stay at the park and work through the winter rather than go back to school.
