The Empty House and Other Ghost Stories표제작의 시작 부분에서 주인공 짐 쇼트하우스(Jim Shorthouse)는 이모 줄리아(Aunt Julia)의 부름을 받고 마을에서 귀신이 나온다고 소문난 집을 조사하러 갑니다. 흥미를 느끼면서도 주저하던 쇼트하우스는 이모가 그 집의 벽 뒤에 숨겨진 비밀을 파헤치기 위해 주말 동안 방문할 수 있는 열쇠를 구했다는 사실을 알게 됩니다. 곧 두 사람은 과거의 살인 사건과 관련된 어두운 역사를 알게 되고, 이는 그들의 모험에 긴박감과 긴장감을 더합니다. 집 안 깊숙이 들어설수록 기이한 일들이 일어나고 공포감이 고조되면서 그들의 결단력을 시험하고 집의 불길한 존재감을 드러냅니다. 도입부는 공포와 초자연적 현상에 대한 탐구의 장을 마련하며, 독자들을 쇼트하우스와 그의 이모가 벌이는 섬뜩한 여정에 동참하도록 이끕니다.
