Uncle Chang gave me a book titled THE GRAVEYARD BOOK.
The book is about a family of 4 and 3 of them died (murdered maybe¿) There was only the baby left. The baby was also supposed to be killed but he somehow escaped and got help from the ghosts. The pair of ghost that helped him was the Owens. They were married (they died and became ghosts) but sadly didn't have any children. So they kinda adopted the baby and named him Bod, short for Nobody Owens. Bod lived in the graveyard in Scottland for as long as he knew. He also had a guardian. His name was Silas. Silas was not dead nor alive. He was just... In the middle of that (Yea, I also got confused when I read that part). He was being educated while he was in the graveyard (the ghosts taught him).
Then one day, a little girl named Scarlett wandered away from her parents and went further into the graveyard, and she saw Bod. They got along really well together. They even went inside a cave and saw the Sleer (three headed creature that stay in a cave and guards treasures and waits for his master to come back). Then, bla bla bla, Scarlett's parents got worried, they called the police and she was being questioned. She was 5 years old at that time.
Not long after that, Scarlett and her family moved away. Bod missed her very much.
While Scarlett was away, Silas finally let Bod go to school, only to be in very big trouble. Bod somehow got the police involved. He was just trying to stop a gang bullying a poor kid, and he ended up getting caught. He was waiting in the back of the police's car, when he saw that someone just got ran over. He banged and hit the window of the car, and told the police that they hit his dad (Silas actually) he started crying and all when Silas woke up and told him to hold on tight to him and that Silas would take him back to the graveyard.
After some years (Bod and Scarlett are 15 now), Scarlett came back to Scottland with her mother. She wandered off some, and saw something familiar. It was an on church. The outta nowhere, a guy who called himself Mr. Frost came out of his house and asked Scarlett if she wanted a ride home. At first, she declined because she knew she can't trust strangers but at the end, she actually ended up getting that ride home. Mr. Frost and her mother got along quiet well to be honest.
Scarlett then asked Mr. Frost about his house (he lived where Bod's family got killed). He told her that he dug up some information and lured Bod in that house. So yeah, long story short, Mr. Frost was the one who killed Bod's family. Bod was running along with Scarlett back to the graveyard. The 4 guys that were with Mr. Frost (real name was Jack) were soon scattered around the world. 1 of them got sucked up into a ghoul gate (and ended up in a desert, I think) and the other fell down into one of the deepest grave in that graveyard and he ended uo getting a broken angkle. Jack went into a cave (where Bod told Scarlett to go in) and out a knife on her throat. He threatened to kill her.
But in the end, the Sleer came out and saved the day! (Lol) he took Jack where no one would've known.
Then, Silas gave him a bag that contained money and a passport on behalf of Bod Owens. And he now couldn't see ghosts.
He decided to leave. If he came back to that graveyard, it would be a place, not a home anymore.
