Beginning

• It all starts out in his science class. Timothy
  thinks the creatures in the specimen jars are
  watching him. He then hears a clicking noise,
  which he thinks is the creatures in the jars
  trying to crawl out. Its actually Abigail, the
  new student trying to light her foot on fire.
  When Timothys teacher asked who wanted to be
  Abigails partner, Timothy scratched his ear but
  the teacher mistakes it that he wants to be
  partners with Abigail.

At The Museum

• At the museum, they look at a magical jawbone
  that curses people the controller says to. The
  jawbone is powered by a tooth that is charged
  with spirits. The spirits haunt the victim and
  make him/her cower at every little shadow. When
  Timothy and Abigail are looking at the Edge of
  Doom painting, Stuart, Timothys friend throws a
  water balloon at them, making Abigail run into an
  Employee Only section which triggers all the
  things that are about to happen.

The Book

• Timothy runs after Abigail who is scrunched up
  behind a bookcase. Beside the bookcase, is a book
  which practically changes Timothys life. The
  book is a mystery book about a girl who is
  kidnapped and her friend tries to find her. The
  kidnapper is non other than Hessileus, the towns
  used to be hero until he turned evil. Timothy
  then senses a man watching him, he is right. And
  that man happens to be Hessileus son Jonathan
  who is angry that Timothy stole his fathers book
  and wants revenge.

Mary White and Mary Brown

• Revenge being telling the magical jawbone (Which
  Jonathan has) to haunt Timothy and Abigail with
  two ghost girls The Nightmarys or Mary White and
  Mary Brown. They bring fear to life. For example,
  if you were afraid that they would kill you, they
  would try their hardest to kill you. Timothy and
  Abigail then go on a journey to find Jonathan and
  destroy the jawbone. They fail the first time and
  get trapped in Jonathans attic. When they manage
  to get out, Jonathan is gone. But they once again
  find him at the lighthouse where he locks Abigail
  in the dungeon with The Nightmarys.

The Ending

• The ending is like any other ending The good
  guys win. When Jonathan told The Nightmarys to
  charge the tooth with Timothys and Abigails
  souls, The Nightmarys use his instead because he
  trapped them and forced them to do everything he
  told them to. Like slaves.
