DB sighed. He was beginning to believe that they'd been led on a wild goose chase. This guy wasn't going to be able to tell them anything. "The rumors claim you can become corporeal on Halloween night. Is that true?"

"Solid you mean? Yeah, sure. So, you think I can just go after Stacy? Like, leave the graveyard?"

"Just a second." DB moved toward the ghost. "We'll help you with Stacy, if you help us with this solid thing. How do you manage it? How does it work?"

Could it be he and Jesse were about to catch a break?

Jesse moved forward, too. Even Yanya was edging closer.

"It's the spell."

"What spell?" They were close, DB could almost... well, feel it.

"The spell that Stacy did." He was looking at them like they were crazy. "The one that killed me? See? I'm dead, but I get a night a year to be solid again. She cursed me, she killed me, and she left. So, you think I can find her again?"

Jesse fell back with a groan. "Oh, for God's sake."

DB rolled his eyes. "Of course you can! She killed you -- you're supposed to haunt her. It's almost a rule."

Jesse snorted, and Yanya flapped her arm, making her bracelets jingle. "You heard him," she said in her deep voice. "Go haunt Stacy. Leave the poor ghosts here alone, so they'll leave me alone.

And if you get a chance, tell that Stacy to stop by Madam Yanyas for all her magical needs. I have great herbs."

Now it was DB's turn to roll his eyes. "This is not an advertising opportunity!"

"It sure as hell is." Yanya gave him an indignant look. "I'm going home. Thank you for coming out; sorry it was a dud. See you when there's a crisis, I'm sure."

"That's it? Too bad, so sad, I'm outta here? You wasted my entire night, and that's all the thanks I get?" He harumphed and lit another cigarette. "I had things I could have been doing, you know."

"Like me." Jesse glared at the dude in the bad suit. "Why are you still here? It's Halloween, you can be solid. Go find Stacy and give her the haunting of her life. Oh, and swing by 328

Waterside and scare the crap out of the guy who poisoned me, too."

Yanya laughed, waved, and walked away. "Nice, child. Nice."
