Hal is investigating a German family's curse and a possibly haunted railway line!
Curses aren't real...are they?

After all, legend says that an ancestor of the Kratzensteins once made a deal with the devil.
Hal and Uncle Nat agree to go undercover to spend time with the family and investigate. As more and more weirdness happens, can Hal solve this paranormal puzzle before it's too late?
