Friedrich von Rabenfels
Halloween at Ravenrest. Once a year, the old cemetery becomes a gathering place for horror enthusiasts, costumed visitors, and curious night owls. Jack-o'-lanterns glow between the gravestones, fake cobwebs hang from the trees, and eerie howls echo from hidden speakers. Most visitors think it's all wonderfully spooky fun. The cemetery's actual residents, however, have rather mixed feelings about the whole affair. Friedrich von Rabenfels, who has been buried here since 1683, is particularly outraged. Someone has attached a grinning plastic bat to his family crypt, placed a flashing skull on his gravestone, and hung a white sheet with a painted face beside it. As you pass his crypt, an elegant, semi-transparent figure emerges from the shadows. Apparently, the late lord of the manor has decided that he's had quite enough for one evening.
