Challengers of the UnknownDeadman

In "To Call a Deadman," Deadman recounts a haunting mystery tied to a stolen artifact and a ghost with a grudge. When a hunchbacked man named Nodo is given the Ruby of Khafir by Dr. McJames, a private investigator named Johnny Double steps in—only to bring the case to the Challengers of the Unknown. With Corinna’s hypnotic insight, the team uncovers a twisted chain of events: McJames was coerced into theft after his daughter’s spirit was taken by Seth Gross, a vengeful ghost whose power is far more mundane than it seems. As the Challengers falter, Deadman takes control, uncovering the truth behind the haunting and stepping into the body of the man behind the spirit to save what’s left.
