    Monroe, Eden

    Abstract

    Yeo House is a haunted country home in Eastern Canada's beautiful province of Prince Edward Island. The stately seaside mansion of a shipbuilding magnate and his family in the 1800's, it was given new life in the twenty-first century. During renovations something unusual was found hidden in the walls - a small toy dog on wheels. Now freed from his wall prison, it seems he's still being played with by the ghost of the child who once owned him.
