Ellen Weiss
- Reading
- If ghost stories unsettle your child, pause before reading to mention that the haunting is resolved and the ghost becomes an ally. You could also check in during the strange events.
- Themes
- Fear of the ghost: Unexplained happenings make the performers afraid of a ghost in the theatre; they later agree that John Stone may stay. The plot moves from fear to welcome, but that resolution alone does not establish a wider message about ghosts or trust.
- A rescue during the show: Gonzo is caught in ropes above the stage after a cannon act, and the ghost rescues him. The synopsis presents a peril and rescue, but does not establish how vividly the scene is shown or whether Gonzo is hurt.
- Worth knowing
- The ghostly disturbances may feel spooky, and Gonzo is left in a precarious position above the stage after being shot from a cannon. The synopsis does not describe injury.
