Description
In this chilling tale inspired by Norse mythology, three kids arrive in Manitoba from the US to spend the summer with their grandpa, ready to listen to his Icelandic stories. But they are anything but prepared when signs of a draugr—a man who comes back from the dead—appear in real life.
