Forced to spend the summer under the watchful eye of his great Aunt Mabel, Skippy is less than happy with the arrangement his parents have made. The fact that Aunt Mabel lives in a huge mansion right on the beach doesn't matter. As far as Skippy is concerned Aunt Mabel is old, creepy, secretive and should be dead by now. Years ago Mabel bought the mansion when it was in a sorry state of repair. She renovated it and turned it into the Number #1 place to stay on the island of Long Beach, New Jersey. Although a frightening legend full of mystery and intrigue has circulated for years, Aunt Mabel claims she never believed any of the stories as real. Actually, Skippy thinks that they were invented simply to keep paying guests coming every summer.
As well as having a surprisingly good time at the beach, something very sinister happens. Totally by accident Skippy digs up the truth about the mansion, the haunting and an ancient family curse that threatens to terminate the entire family. There is definitely more to the mansion and Aunt Mabel than meets the eye. Disturbing paranormal activity, a double murder, kidnapping and a gruesome transmutation is only the beginning.
Meanwhile, Skippy and his two new friends begin a quest to find the origin of a horrific discovery they made while crusin' the beach one night. Armed with nothing more than a mangled clue they begin a wild goose chase that takes them all over the island and onto the mainland. Peddling as fast as they can they ride their bikes deep into the woods of the Pine Barrens. Snooping too much for their own good, the boys get the shock of their lives when they come face to face with a Jersey legend. Panic, shivers, dread and unmatched fear grip all three boys as they try to end the madness.
