Emilia Ukkonen:
The Ghost Boy (2024)

The Ghost Boy is the story of James. James lives in the north of England in North-Yorkshire, which is known in England as a hot spot for paranormal events. Ghosts of the past are buzzing in the corners of the streets of the now somewhat sad and forgotten town of Scarborough, which is formerly known as the summer resort of the upper classes of the Victorian era. James has ADHD. He feels that this neurodevelopmental condition gives him the ability to see, hear and to experience things differenly than others. In addition, due to ADHD supernatural things happen around him. The work tells the story of James, his family, his life and about supernatural experiences, and what it’s like to live with a neurodevelopmental condition.
