Goosebumps meets Diary of a Wimpy Kid in this spooky-yet-silly adventure filled with supernatural chaos! Preston and his brothers are in a graveyard making a YouTube video about monsters when they are attacked by a real-life zombie! But it's not just any zombie - it's Preston's best friend Tommy who passed away a few months ago after an unfortunate squash avalanche accident in a supermarket. Thrilled to have his friend back, Preston promises to give Tommy lessons so he can once again fit into everyday life and they can stay friends for ever. However, Preston's lessons are repeatedly thwarted by his brothers.
Twelve-year-old Zac bosses everybody around, while eight-year-old Hal keeps making up stories and pretending he can understand what Tommy is really saying. Meanwhile, monster hunter Vincent Valiant will stop at nothing to put Tommy back in the ground where he belongs. If the brothers can't find a way to get along, they could end up losing their friend for ever.
