Peterson sisters, that means their family's huge bash. Their house is the perfect place for a party--if you don't mind the drive.

The Peterson girls have seen strange things going on at that house over years, but they've always been able to dismiss them. Until now. This New Year's Eve, the mysteries hidden in the house want to be discovered. And they won't be ignored any longer... This haunting tale is rated a Level 4 on the Creep-o-Meter.
