When Miss Eells buys the old oil lamp, she loves it. But for some reason, she never takes it out of the box. So when Anthony asks to borrow it for a science project, she has no problem handing the lamp over.
In the science lab, Anthony lights the lamp and works on labels for the project. He winds up being the only kid left in the school, and is kind of spooked as he leaves. Then he sees a mysterious figure--and trips over the body of the school security guard!
Pretty spooky stuff. Bellairs liked to get grim in these things, didn't he?
