The Ghost's Confrontation

The ghost of a father tries to change the ways of his wayward sons by giving them a very confrontational reality check at the family plot. His ticket to Heaven is dependent upon saving at least one of his sons.

The Family Plot Description

A crypt with four rows of three graves. Seven of the graves are marked with the names of family members already entombed. There will be three on the top row and four on the second row (one won't be revealed until the end of the play). There should be a hinge on the door of one of the graves on the second row that will open to reveal a casket. The third row should have unmarked outside doors which reveal that the reverse sides are marked with names of the sons and their birth and death dates. Doors should be capable of rattling on cue. There should be two benches in front of the vaults.
