|summary=Ghosts just aren't scary any more – so the Great Hagges, who like to organise things, set up a school to remedy the problem. And despite the occasional hitch things are going fairly smoothly until two human children turn up. Then things get really frightening.

You've met people like the Great Hagges. Broad in the beam, determined and strident, they subdue petty officials with a single look and ensure everything around them is neat and tidy and well-planned. They're often to be found in the caring professions, but don't be fooled: they are not kind, or gentle, or sensitive to other people's feelings - not even the teeniest little bit. They just don't like mess.
