***SYNOPSIS WITH SPOILERS***

Ryan has the flu and his Mom advises him to drink lots of liquids but the side effect is that Ryan now has to get up often to pee in order to avoid wetting the bed. His nightly excursions to the bathroom take him out into the dark house where he spots a shadow on the sofa. At first he thinks it’s one of his parents but when he calls out to it, it doesn’t respond. The next thing he knows, it’s rising, clicking and creaking and following him! Just what is the shadow on the haunted sofa? Turns out… it’s probably just his stargazing grandpa. Or is it?(Warning: May be too spooky for smaller children.)
