"Closed for the Season" by Mary Downing Hahn follows the story of two children, 12-year-old brothers, who move to a new town and quickly discover the mystery surrounding an abandoned amusement park. As they explore the park, they uncover secrets that connect to a tragedy that took place years earlier. They encounter strange occurrences and ghostly figures, leading them to investigate the events that closed the park for good. Throughout their adventure, they confront fears, develop courage, and learn the importance of friendship as they piece together the haunting past of the park and its impact on the community.
