    Summary

    The real haunting begins.

    After surviving the hallucinations of his dead little brother, Dick Grayson was starting to heal.

    Then the Red Hood walked into his apartment.

    Not a dream. Not a ghost.

    Jason Todd is alive.

    What does Dick do? Well, he makes the (very big) ghost of his baby brother a bowl of cereal. Because even after all this time, he still can’t tell him to go away.

    Now, Dick has to face the grief that nearly killed him.

    And the little brother he never closed the door on.
